A free practice question for the Georgia permit test, with the answer explained.
Independent practice site. We're not the DDS and aren't connected to any government agency.
No sign is posted. What is the speed limit on a paved two-lane road through farm country?
The rule
Unless posted, the limit is 55 mph on roads in all other areas: roads that aren't interstates, multi-lane divided highways, urban or residential streets or unpaved county roads.
A paved two-lane country road falls under all other areas: 55 mph unless signs say otherwise.
From the Georgia Drivers' Manual, page 21. This question is our own wording of that rule. The handbook and the DDS have the final word.
