The safest maximum speed for that road
Probably determined by the method used for enforcement. It refers to the speed you are going when the radar gun pings you (instantaneous speed) or the time it takes to cover a predetermined distance from an aircraft (average speed).The above refers to enforcement, as indicated. And it is correct. As regards enforcement. The to the question is that the speed limit sign refers to the maximum instantaneous speed at any point in your travels on a roadway that is so marked.
It means that the speed limit is 50 miles per hour.
Ths limit varies from state to state. It is usually 25 mph or can be 30 mph. To be sure contact your local police or DMV office and ask.
The speed limit doesn't change, but you are expected to make a reasonable adjustment to your speed to compensate for the conditions. So basically, as fast as you can go at or below the speed limit without getting into a wreck.
The fastest vehicle.
Yes. A speed limit sign is an example of a regulatory sign.
In the UK the speed limit comes into force as soon as you pass the speed limit sign. As such the distance is zero as you should have slowed down to the posted speed limit before passing the sign.
A yellow diamond-shaped sign with a black number inside indicates the highest safe speed limit in that area.
When it is flashing the speed posted is the limit
the sign that says speed limit and that has a number with mph [miles per hour] on it ex:speed limit 50 mph.

It is unknown who invented the speed limit sign. However, the first maximum speed limit was the 10mph (16km/h) limit introduced in theUnited Kingdomin 1861.
It varies by jurisdiction.
When another speed limit sign is reached that changes the limit from the previously posted one.
Speed limit sign 55
Regulation Sign Example will be the Speed Limit 50
The increased speed limit goes into effect AT the speed limit sign, not at any point before that. While you're not likely to get cited for accelerating at a reasonable point before you actually get to the sign, you're still bound by the prior speed limit until you actually reach that sign.
