drives all year round, and it is no wonder that "cliff-style" speed reduction is long ago. Especially when passing through the tunnel, the speed limit is 60 on the entrance of the tunnel. A speaker suddenly said that the speed limit is 40. Violators will be fined and points will be deducted!
What's more, the speed limits in both sides of the same road are different. I suddenly speeded up halfway, and the fine was deducted points.
Recently, functional departments responded to this kind of "high and low" speed limit situation.
The CPPCC meeting named the speed limit "flash high and low", and the Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transportation responded
At the second meeting of the 13th National Committee of the CPPCC, member Feng Yidong of the CPPCC pointed out the current situation of "cliff-style speed reduction" and "flash-high and low-level speed limit" and put forward a proposal to regulate highway speed limit.
The Ministry of Transportation’s Highway Bureau responded to this proposal.
What you said is that "speed limits are very high and low, and even cliff-like speed reduction occurs when the same expressway and road conditions are similar" exists in some areas and sections.
The unscientific and unreasonable speed limits affect the safe and comfortable travel of the expressway, the efficiency of traffic and the vital interests of the people.
We agree with your proposal to "maintain the relative stability of highway speed limits" and should strengthen the scientific demonstration of speed limit values. When there is no obvious change in geometric indicators, roadside conditions and operating environment conditions, the highway speed limit values should not change frequently to maintain the comfortable and safe driving of vehicles and improve the safety level.
Improve the speed limit sign and clean the speed limit facilities
As early as the end of 2015, the Ministry of Transport made a study on the issue of irregular speed limits and put forward a new idea of unified speed limits nationwide.
The above opinions put forward by CPPCC members have been discussed by functional departments for 4 years. Therefore, the Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transport immediately gave corresponding improvement measures:
1. Increase the publicity and implementation of the "National Standard" and improve the setting of highway speed limit signs.
According to the provisions of the National Standard, the speed limit of highways should be determined based on comprehensive demonstration and demonstration of factors such as design speed, operating speed, roadside interference and environment.
2. Regarding the cleaning of speed limiting speed measurement facilities.
The highway management department will work with the public security traffic management department to focus on solving problems such as low speed limit values and excessive changes in speed limit values, and provide drivers with a safe and efficient highway driving environment.
project was successfully launched for one year, and the speed limit problem should be learned from Shandong.
As early as mid-2018, the Shandong Provincial Public Security Department issued the "Eight Work Measures to Comprehensively Improve and Standardize Highway Speed Limits and Speed Tests", which regulated the issue of highway speed limits:

1. Clean up the non-compliant speed limit signs on the road surface across the province. If the speed limit value and the difference between the front and rear value exceeds 20 kilometers per hour, the speed limit should be previewed in advance or the speed limit should be limited step by step;
2. Violations of speeding less than 10% on the road on the road shall be warned, and no fines shall be imposed or scored;
3. Violations of speeding less than 50% on the road with a designed speed of less than 60 kilometers per hour shall be warned, and no fines shall be imposed;
4. On the expressway, if the speeding illegal acts of speeding less than 100 kilometers per hour and speeding less than 80 kilometers per hour shall be imposed, and no penalty shall be imposed;
4. On the expressway, speeding illegal acts of speeding less than 80 kilometers per hour below bridges, tunnels, and construction sections without causing road traffic accidents shall not be punished.
To this day, the "Eight Measures" have been implemented for a year. It is understood that the "flashing high and low" speed limit on the main road surface in Shandong has basically no longer exists, and many drivers and friends applaud.
This time, this issue has risen to the national level for the first time. The Highway Bureau of the Ministry of Transportation also officially sent a letter to issue a letter. Standardizing speed limits and cleaning non-compliant speed limits are just around the corner.
In this way, drivers and friends will no longer have to worry about being scared by the sudden speed limit sign. It is a real good policy!
