The country is a small community, a city-state if you will. People generally walk and bike to their destinations. Sometimes they take the public trolley for relatively far-off places.

Depends on the location, type, and function of the road you are talking about.

For rural roads, the average speed limit is 60 MPH.
For suburban streets, the average speed limit is 30 to 40 MPH.
For urban streets, the average speed limit is 40 MPH.
And for Interstate Highways, the speed limit is generally unlimited (though traffic police monitor those roads more heavily than other roads to help ensure people drive relatively safe).

There are no speed limits on Nordenkaltian roads, the new 2011 constitution gives local governments power to set speed limits but none have so far (as of 2013).

None. There are speed recommendation signs to help prevent you from crashing, especially if your on a busy street. If no other cars are around you can go as fast as you want.
Speed limits based on when the street has heavy traffic is often excessive when the road has almost no traffic. Traffic on roads based on time of day and season can vary.

If you cause damages you get criminally charged, fined, and must pay repairs. If you cause an injury to an innocent person you go to labor prison. If you kill an innocent person you go to labor prison for life. Accidents and intentional are treated the same under the law. Car insurance is not mandatory, this incentives people to drive more safely, no being forced to pay for someone else's crime.

Many young Freemopians start driving small vehicles around age 1 and practice often.
Average Freemopians at age 5 can drive just as well as an average 35year old driver in many other nations.
Freemopians are on average safe drivers and in good shape.
Racing and stunt driving is popular.
There are no age limits or licenses for anything.
Drunk driving and texting while driving is highly discouraged.
It's encouraged to keep your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.

Many Freemopians fly air craft. Freemopia is not dependent on imports. Freemopians are mostly self sufficient. It is not necessary for products to be transported long distances in Freemopia. Walking running and bike riding is a common way of travel. Roads often don't have much traffic.

Speed limits are determined by the authority that commissioned the road. The limit on roads without explicit limits is 40 kMPH.

On most sections of the National Highway System, the limit is 70 or 80 kMPH; this is also the case on provincial highway systems. Roads built and maintained by lesser authorities are more sketchy in determining a suitable speed limit.

One particular highway built by the Ching-yuen County government has a posted speed limit of 600 kMPH, but it seems to have be built in order that the country may boast of the highest speed limit in the nation.

Motorways: 120km/h (130km/h in some cases)
Dual-carriage way A-Roads: 100km/h
Single-carriage way A-Roads: 80km/h
Primary roads (overland): 80km/h (90km/h in some cases)
Secondary roads (overland): 60km/h to 80km/h
Urban streets: 50km/h
Residential areas: 30km/h (40km/h in some cases)
Shared space: 20km/h

These are default speed limits. If the situation requires, those limits are lowered. For example it is quite normal for motorways to be limited to 80km/h when they run through a city.
Also, in the past years the federal office for road traffic (FORT) has installed variable speed signs on motorways, in order to be able to adapt speed limits to traffic volumes.

There is a common limit of 80 kilometers per hour or 50 miles per hour in minor thoroughfares and 120 kilometers per hour or 75 miles per hour on major thoroughfares owned, created and maintained by the government. Private roads may have stricter limitations or none at all.
