Question: A white regulatory sign showing 'MAXIMUM 80' means:
Answer options:
- Recommended speed 80 ✅ Maximum legal speed 80 km/h
- Minimum 80
- Suggested cruising speed
Correct answer: Maximum legal speed 80 km/h
Explanation: In Alberta, white rectangular signs with black lettering are regulatory signs that convey mandatory traffic laws. A 'MAXIMUM 80' sign designates the maximum legal speed of 80 km/h under ideal road conditions. Options suggesting a recommended speed, minimum speed, or suggested cruising speed are incorrect because these signs carry the force of law and are not mere suggestions or warnings, which are typically displayed on yellow or orange advisory plates. Understanding the color-coding and shapes of Alberta road signs is a critical component of the Class 7 knowledge test, as failing to obey regulatory signs can result in fines and demerits.
