What is the minimum speed limit on most highways?

25 mph
40 mph
5 mph
10 mph

The correct answer is: 40 mph

Most highways have a minimum speed limit of 40 mph to ensure smooth traffic flow and prevent slower vehicles from impeding the flow. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because 25 mph would be too slow for a highway, 5 mph is too slow for any road, and 10 mph would also be too slow for a highway, potentially causing traffic congestion and increasing the risk of accidents. Option B, 40 mph, is the most appropriate minimum speed limit for highways.
