What is the speed limit in cities and towns?

  1. 55 mph

  2. 65 mph

  3. 25 mph

  4. 45 mph

The correct answer is: 25 mph

The speed limit in cities and towns is typically set at 25 mph. This is because there are more obstacles and pedestrians in these areas, making it unsafe to drive at higher speeds. Choosing options A, B, or D would put drivers and others at risk. These speeds are more appropriate for highways or rural areas. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
