Be cautious, especially during dawn and dusk when animals are more active.

In Jersey, the maximum speed allowed is 40 mph. However various areas on the island, especially in built-up regions such as St. Helier and St. Brelade, have considerably lower speed limits. There are numerous 'part-time' 20 mph zones near schools, and the speed limit in the green lanes is set at just 15 mph. It is important to remember to always adjust your driving speed depending on the weather conditions and visibility, as well as during the peak tourist seasons of July to September when there will be many more cars circulating on the narrow roads and lanes.
