What is the maximum speed allowed on residential streets?
Speed
Explanation
In **residential streets**, where the roadway and the sidewalk are at the same level, the **maximum permitted speed is 20 km/h**. This is because these areas are usually zones with more pedestrians and residential activities, which requires a lower speed to ensure everyone's safety.
In comparison, streets with a single lane in each direction allow a maximum speed of 30 km/h, and streets with multiple lanes in each direction allow up to 50 km/h. However, these are not typically residential streets.
Therefore, in residential streets, the maximum speed of **20 km/h** is correct to ensure a safe environment for all road users.
