Speed limits in Tasmania

Speed limits are set and enforced in Tasmania to keep everyone safe, whether you drive, ride or walk.

Speed limits are the maximum speed that you are allowed to travel. They are not a target speed.

Sometimes the speed you should be travelling at will be lower than the speed limit, depending on things like the weather, how busy the road is, or whether it is light or dark.

The Commissioner for Transport sets speed limits so everyone can have a safer and more reliable journey.
