In general, the maximum permitted speed on through-roads and urban roads is 50 km/h. Can the traffic authority establish a maximum speed lower than that?
Speed
Explanation
The **traffic authority** has the ability to set a **maximum speed lower** than 50 km/h on through roads and urban roads. This is because speed limits are determined considering the **safety** and **specific conditions** of each road. For example, on streets without curbs or with a single lane in each direction, the maximum speed can be **20 or 25 km/h**, respectively.
Additionally, on urban roads, the maximum speed can be adjusted to **protect pedestrians** and reduce the severity of accidents. Therefore, lower limits may be set to ensure the safety of all road users.
