Australian Capital Territory · Road Rules Knowledge Test · Road rules

The lower panel of an ACT school zone sign is swung closed. What limit applies?

The answer

  • The zone is unenforceable when closed
  • 40 km/h - the school zone limit always applies
  • The normal default limit, usually 50 km/h, unless signposted otherwise Correct
  • 25 km/h

Why that's the answer

A closed school zone sign means the special limit is not in force, so the normal default of 50 km/h applies unless a sign shows something different.
