Is there a highway in India with no speed limit? We uncover the truth behind this viral myth and what it really means for Indian road safety.
🧠 Did You Know?
There’s a long-standing rumor that India has a highway with no official speed limit — and it’s partially true!
This belief often points to the Yamuna Expressway, a 165-km stretch connecting Greater Noida to Agra. It's one of India’s most modern expressways, designed for high-speed travel with minimum entry/exit points, wide lanes, and smooth asphalt.
While it's not officially “no limit”, the speed limit of 100 km/h for cars is rarely enforced strictly, leading many to treat it as an unrestricted autobahn-style route.
🚗 The Real Deal on Speed Limits
India doesn't legally allow any road to be speed-limit free, but Yamuna Expressway is:
- Lightly patrolled in certain stretches
- Exceptionally well-paved, encouraging high-speed driving
- Frequented by test drives, luxury cars, and motorbike enthusiasts
- Also known for a high rate of accidents due to speeding
A study by the Institute of Road Traffic Education found that 40% of accidents on this expressway are due to overspeeding.
