What speed limit is commonly adopted near shorelines in certain provinces?

  1. 10km/h within 30 meters of the shoreline

  2. 20km/h within 50 meters of the shoreline

  3. 5km/h within 15 meters of the shoreline

  4. 15km/h within 40 meters of the shoreline

The correct answer is: 10km/h within 30 meters of the shoreline

The correct answer is A, as 10km/h is the commonly adopted speed limit near shorelines in certain provinces. In these areas, the main concern is to prevent accidents and collisions with beachgoers, swimmers, and marine wildlife. B and D are incorrect because 20km/h and 15km/h are both higher speeds than the commonly adopted limit of 10km/h. C is also incorrect because 5km/h is a slower speed limit than the commonly adopted limit. It is important to follow the designated speed limits near shorelines to ensure the safety of all individuals and animals in the area.
