<upd_detl>I don't think "default speed limit" works that well. In the US, Australia, etc. it's a state

<upd_detl>As explained in the Wikipedia article above, 法定速度 applies when there are no signs indicating the speed limit. It differs depending on road type and vehicle. In the UK, this is called the "national speed limit".</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>a highway is a road too, no? Isn't it better to translate 一般道路 as "public road"? or something else just than "road"</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I've suggested a rewording for 一般道路 based on KOD. I think the road/highway distinction is clear enough, but I've suggested a tweak.</upd_detl>
