(A) Generally. No person shall drive a vehicle at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent under the conditions and having regard to the actual and potential hazards then existing. Consistent with the foregoing, every person shall drive at a safe and appropriate speed when approaching and crossing an intersection or railroad grade crossing, when approaching and going around a curve, when approaching a hill crest, when traveling upon any narrow or winding roadway and when special hazards exist with respect to pedestrians or other traffic, or by reason of weather or highway conditions.
(B) Maximum speed limit. Where no special hazards exist, the speed limit of 40 mph, unless otherwise posted, shall be the lawful speed limit on any public road within the county, and any speed in excess of this 40 mph speed limit shall be prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable or prudent and that it is unlawful.
(C) Old Highway 30. No person shall drive a vehicle in excess of 30 mph on the county public road known as Old Highway 30 within a two-mile zone extending eastward from the Mountain Green exit of State Road 84.
