Sample question from test 1
speed
When no sign gives a different number, what speed limit applies on a Kentucky state highway other than an interstate?
- 45 mph
- 55 mph
- 60 mph
- 70 mph
Answer: 55 mph. Kentucky assigns a 55 mph default to state highways that are not interstates or parkways. The 45 mph and 60 mph choices substitute numbers that are not listed for this road category. The 70 mph choice describes a possible increase on specific highways, not the ordinary unposted rule. A useful cue is to identify the road type before choosing a number: interstate and parkway limits are handled separately, while all other state highways use the 55 mph baseline unless a sign changes it.
