What is the speed limit in a residential area in New York?

  1. 15 mph

  2. 25 mph

  3. 35 mph

  4. 45 mph

The correct answer is: 25 mph

The speed limit in a residential area in New York is typically 25 mph. This speed limit is set to ensure the safety of residents and pedestrians in the area. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are higher than the designated speed limit for residential areas. Driving at higher speeds in this type of area can increase the risk of accidents and endanger the safety of those in the community. It is important to always adhere to the designated speed limit while driving in residential areas.
