The government has withdrawn its earlier decision regarding the temporary reduction in speed limits on motorways and national highways, restoring the previous speed limits for all categories of vehicles. According to a Motorway Police spokesperson, the speed limit for cars and Light Transport Vehicles (LTVs) on motorways has been restored to 120 kilometers per hour. Similarly, the speed limit for Public Service Vehicles (PSVs) and Heavy Transport Vehicles (HTVs) on motorways has been reinstated to 110 kilometers per hour.
Speed Limits Restored on National Highways
The spokesperson further stated that speed limits for cars, LTVs, PSVs, and HTVs on national highways have also been restored in accordance with the previously prescribed rates. The National Highways and Motorway Police (NHMP) urged motorists to continue observing traffic laws and drive responsibly to ensure road safety for all users.
Emphasis on Road Safety
The motorway police reiterated that compliance with speed regulations, lane discipline, and safe driving practices remain essential for preventing accidents and ensuring smooth traffic flow across the country's road network.
