The speed limits for cars in Gandhara are as follows:

50 km/h (31 mph) within built-up areas;
70 km/h (43 mph) outside of built-up areas;
100 km/h (62 mph) on expressways;
120 km/h (75 mph) on freeways.

The limits shown above apply only if there are no other signs present, as the signs may prescribe a lower or a higher speed limit. In urban residential areas, 30 km/h (19 mph) zones are found.

30 km/h zone limit, often found in residential areas.

There is no minimum speed on Gandhari motorways. However, only motorized vehicles capable of driving at least 50 km/h are allowed to enter expressways. For freeways, the required minimum is 60 km/h (37 mph).

Speed limits by vehicle type

Trucks and cars or vans pulling a trailer with a total weight of more than 3.5 metric tons are restricted to 80 km/h (50 mph). Buses and cars or vans with a trailer with a total weight of less than 3.5 tons (with the trailer weighing less than 750 kg) are allowed to drive 80 km/h on expressways and 90 km/h (56 mph) on freeways.

Motorcycles have the same speed limits as cars, while mopeds are restricted to 30 km/h within built-up areas and to 40 km/h (25 mph) outside of built-up areas.

Motorized vehicles with a limited speed, like tractors, are allowed to drive on the road within and outside of inhabited places. These types of vehicles are restricted to 25 km/h (16 mph).
