Speed limits are imposed by the government of each country which imposes such limits by weighing the road conditions versus populated infrastructures. Other countries (in Europe) impose speed limits based on these factors and measure velocity in Kilometers per Hour (kph). In Germany, the use of the Autobahn is speed restricted (imposed limits) near populated areas. Outside these areas there is no speed restrictions, therefore you can drive as fast a your vehicle can carry you.

When you look at your speedometer, you will notice two scales. One in Miles per Hour (MPH) and the other in Kilometers per Hour (kpH). This is to assist you in determining if you are driving too fast for the posted speed limits. For example, in England a posted speed limit is 100, to drive at that speed, you cannot exceed 60MPH.

Hi. The speed limit in America varies all over the place from 5 MPH to unlimited (I think) in one or two states. The same would apply to other countries.

The only difference in speed is how it's measured.
Most other countries measure speed in kilometers.

how many miles and how fast is it safe to typically drive on a spare tire??

The only thing is, once you're out of the US, most other countries use kilometers instead of miles, which is a different system of measurement, just like Fahrenheit vs Celsius for temperature.
