Introduction
Speed limits are highly essential and present in almost every
jurisdiction of the world with the only exceptions being the
autobahn road in Germany. However, while they may be frustrating,
speed limits are necessary requirements to ensure the safety of
road users.
In Oman, speed limits are listed alongside the roads, though as
with some of the other Middle Eastern countries, the speed limit is
not precise. There is usually a specific range of speed within
which fines will not incur.
In Oman, the allowance was 15km an hour above the specified
speeds on certain roads. The reason for this is to account for
variations and inaccuracies that may exist in car speedometers.
