Sample question from test 1
speed
What maximum speed applies when passing a school during recess in Maine, unless a different limit is posted?
- 15 miles per hour
- 25 miles per hour
- 35 miles per hour
- 45 miles per hour
Answer: 15 miles per hour. Maine sets a 15 mile per hour maximum when a driver passes a school during recess, or when children are traveling to or from school during opening or closing hours. The 25 mile per hour figure belongs to business, residential, and built-up areas, so it is the most plausible but incorrect substitute here. A posted limit still controls when one is lower or otherwise specific. The practical cue is the school setting and the timing: slow to 15 mph during recess or the listed arrival and departure periods, and use extreme care when the exact period is uncertain.
