As with most of Thailand, the general speed limit in the urban areas of Pattaya is 60 km/h (37 mph). The low-speed regulation is because there are many motorists and pedestrians on most Pattaya roads. The speed limit also applies to residential areas and roads within the built-up areas of the town. Still, speed limits may vary according to the condition of the road, so look out for signage that indicates speed limits to avoid getting in bad books with traffic police.
