South Australian Consolidated Regulations22—Speed-limit in a speed-limited area
(1) The speed-limit
applying to a driver for any length of road in a speed-limited area is the
number of kilometres per hour indicated by the number on the area speed-limit
sign on a road into the area, unless another speed-limit applies to the driver
for the length of road under another rule of this Part.
Example of another speed-limit—
Although an area speed-limit sign on a road into a speed-limited area may
indicate a speed-limit of 60 kilometres per hour, a particular length of road
in the area may have a school zone sign indicating a 40 kilometres per hour
speed-limit for that length of road.
Note—
"Length" of road is defined in the dictionary.
(2) A "speed-limited
area" is the network of roads in an area with:
(a) an
area speed-limit sign on each road into the area, indicating the same number;
and
(b) an
end area speed-limit sign on each road out of the area.
(3) In
subrule (2) (a) and (b):
"road" does not include a road-related area.
Note—
"Road-related area" is defined in rule 13.
