Peter or Strathcona aren't highways. Read the Act's clause a little more closely ... I'm pretty sure this is intended to apply to the 400-series expressways or certain classes of provincial highway (i.e. Hwy 6).

IMHO even 30km is pushing it on smallish streets or short blocks such as those found around Victoria Park. Other traffic regulations require drivers to use due care and attention ... i.e. they are supposed to adjust their speeds and so forth to match local conditions be they weather-related, involve poor visibility/sight-lines, presence of children, and so forth. That would apply here, but some drivers seem to think safety is just about them, hence the ridiculous speeds i have observed some people driving on residential streets in the North End (and used to see when i lived on Peter St a couple years ago).
