Im guessing its 30,
But my road is like a cul-der-sac thing, just wondering the speed limit?
No signs up saying 20 zone or anything like most places, theres two speed bumps though.
Whats the speed limit? Is there a website i can find out?
Thanks

if there is no signs from the last road you exited the limit is the same. so if you came in off a 60mph road its legally still 60

if street lights are within 30m or each other its 30 mph but usually on private roads its best to drive at 15 or 20 mph

If there are lamp posts its nearly always 30 unless there are signs

on a cul-de-sac its a dead end so likely to be 20

the street lights thing is true with the spacing etc. so before you blast round the estate get out you messuring wheel and check the distances (but normally its 30 or traffic calming 20mph zones)

Anyway i can find out to be sure? =\
Surely if it was 20, there would be a sign?
It comes off a mainroad (30mph)
Dont really fancy measuring between lampost

then it's 30mph, normally if its a different speed, there would be a sign at the entrance to the cul-de-sac stating the speed limit if theres a change from the previous road you turned off (as webby1989 said)

If it comes off a road which is 30mph and there are no signs telling you anythink different then it will be a 30mph speed limit.

potentially the speed limit could continue from where you seen the last sign.
Normally if no signs and street lights and a certain space between them its 30mph but you could get away with 34mph i guess lmao

Well they are not really speed bumps there prob about 1 inch high. I personally would not even call them speed bumps tbh.
