Question: What is the typical maximum speed limit on major provincial highways in British Columbia where not otherwise posted?

Answer options:

  • 80 km/h
  • 90 km/h ✅ 100 km/h
  • 120 km/h

Correct answer: 100 km/h

Explanation: Under British Columbia Motor Vehicle Act regulations and the ICBC guide, the standard unposted speed limit for major provincial highways is 100 km/h. While the general unposted limit for secondary rural roads is 80 km/h, major highways are designed for faster transit. The incorrect option of 120 km/h is only permitted where specifically posted on designated high-speed freeways, and 90 km/h is not a standard statutory default in the province. Class 7 exam candidates must memorize these unposted speed limits because questions frequently test the distinction between municipal zones (50 km/h), rural roads (80 km/h), and major provincial highways (100 km/h).
