Speed Limits

What is the minimum speed on a highway?

Quick Answer

Most highways have a minimum speed of 40–50 mph. Driving too slowly can be dangerous and illegal if you block or impede the normal flow of traffic. On highways with a 70 mph limit, the minimum is often 50 mph. Slow-moving vehicles must keep to the right lane.
