Is the speed limit of 5 kilometers in the community stipulated by the state?

The speed limit of 5 kilometers in the community is stipulated by the state. Details are as follows:

1. If there are certain speed limit requirements in streets and residential areas, the state stipulates that the speed limit in residential areas is generally 5 kilometers;

2. The speed limit standard is not only based on the number of lanes, but also on the road grade, traffic flow, road width, isolation belt and other conditions. At the same time, combined with the prohibition of whistling, motor vehicles are restricted from urging pedestrians in the community, especially those who are sick and pregnant, and they also need to make way for pedestrians.

3. Residential roads do not belong to municipal roads and urban public roads, and residential property is generally responsible for traffic management. Once a vehicle accident occurs, it is mainly handled by the property. Generally, foreign vehicles are allowed to pass through the community, which can be regarded as roads, and accidents are regarded as traffic accidents. However, there are also a few high-end residential areas where foreign vehicles are not allowed to enter, which are relatively closed, and accidents are usually counted as off-road accidents.

Legal basis: Article 42 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China.

Motor vehicles driving on the road shall not exceed the maximum speed indicated by the speed limit sign. Keep a safe speed on the road without speed limit signs. When driving at night or on dangerous sections, when encountering meteorological conditions such as dust, hail, rain, snow, fog and ice, the driving speed should be reduced.
