It is important to avoid rush hours, as there is usually a lot of heavy traffic. The maximum speed in urban areas is 60 km/h, 100 km/h on highways and 120 km/h on motorways. However, you will see that the inhabitants do not usually respect these limits. It is normal to see people walking on the shoulders of the road and animals crossing you.
