When does the speed limit end? Common misconception about speed limits.. As of: February 17, 2024, 6:10 a.m By: Hannah Blanket CommentsPressSplit The speed limit ends automatically at a speed limit after every intersection or motorway entrance - or not? A common misconception is that speed limits are automatically lifted after an intersection.

But that's not true, explains the ADAC. “A speed limit generally only ends with the lifting sign (sign 278) or, within town, at the town exit sign,” say the traffic experts.
