As long as you stay under the posted speed limit, you may drive at any speed and in any manner regardless of the road or traffic conditions.
道路や交通の状況がどうであっても、速度制限を超えていなければ、どのような速度・方法で運転してもよい。
This statement is FALSE
Explanation
False. Article 70 requires you to drive at a speed and in a manner that will not endanger others, judged according to the road, the traffic, and the condition of your vehicle. Staying under the posted limit is not enough if the conditions call for more care. (Source: Road Traffic Act, Article 70 - Duty of Safe Driving)
