How do I listen to my friends say that the speed limit signs on Canadian highways cannot be lower than the speed signs ?

Which of your friends told you that? The roadside sign shows the speed limit. Don't exceed the speed limit, otherwise you will be stopped by the police and the amount of the ticket is quite large.

Generally speaking, it's a speed limit sign with an upper limit indication, and there are also some signs with a lower limit indication (which will be marked as max or min). There is a default buffer space of 10%. For example, if the speed limit is 100, you can also drive at 110. I heard that you can also exceed the speed limit slightly for a short time on the express lane.

This is the maximum speed limit, but in Toronto (I don't know about other places), everyone drives at 120. Local friends say it's fine to drive up to 120, but there's a risk of getting fined if you exceed 120. It's said that the maximum speed limit has been proposed to be raised to 120 and is under discussion.

There are things that cannot be lower, and things that cannot be higher. You need to see it in practice.

For Basic 100, can be increased by 10%.

In fact, it's almost the same as in China. If you are a good driver in China, you will have no problem in Canada! When you rent a car, the website will tell you about the traffic rules and insurance in Canada. The service is very good. There is no toll on Canadian highways. The drivers there drive very strictly. When our domestic traffic is also like this, it will be a real strong country. Gasoline is cheaper than in China, about 5.6 RMB per liter, and there are differences in different places. Remember to fill up the gas (87 octane) if you have the chance ? Canada Q&A
