New South Wales · Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) · Road safety

What speed limits apply in high pedestrian activity areas?

The answer

  • 30 km/h or 40 km/h Correct
  • 50 km/h only
  • 60 km/h or 70 km/h
  • 10 km/h only

Why that's the answer

High pedestrian activity areas carry a limit of 30 km/h or 40 km/h. They are used where lots of people are on foot — busy CBD zones and small suburban shopping strips.
