On a motorway that runs through an urban area, if there is no signage, what is the maximum speed a car may travel at?
Highways and motorways
Explanation
On a motorway that passes through an urban area, the **maximum speed allowed for a car is 80 km/h** if there is no signage indicating otherwise. This is because, within towns or cities, motorways and expressways have a lower speed limit to ensure the safety of all road users.
- In general, motorways and expressways outside urban areas allow higher speeds, but within urban areas, the speed is reduced to adapt to the environmental conditions and minimize the risk of accidents.
- Speed limits are set considering the type of road and its conditions, always seeking the safety and comfort of drivers and pedestrians.
Therefore, on an urban motorway without specific signage, the maximum speed is **80 km/h**.
