The speed limit signs along the roadways should be thought of as: The speed limit signs along the roadways should be thought of as:

• A. the recommended speed under the best road condition
• B. the recommended speed under the worst road condition
• C. the recommended speed under any road condition
•  

  The correct answer is A

   

  Imposed speed limits on roads are recommended under the assumption that the roads are in the best condition (i.e. dry, without potholes or heavy traffic, good lighting). So in case the road is wet, let's say in an expressway, then it's safest to drive way slower than the maximum speed limit and not slower than the minimum speed limit at the same time.
