    Default Lowered Speed Limit

    This is a Rant,

    Where I live the PSL was 25 MPH, if that wasn't painful enough the Effin Safety Fuc*s lowered the PSL down to 15 MPH. The only reason I can think is because there was some new housing that went up but even then none of the new houses and / or driveways are within 50' of the main road. Now I have to drive almost 2 miles at this stupid / way to low ridiculous PSL before I get out of the 15 MPH zone, that is some serious mind numbing slow speed. My truck can barely idle at that slow of a speed.

    15? That is ridiculous. At least put it the 30.
    I do 15 in my driveway...

    Can they legally make a 15 MPH speed limit? In GA the minimum speed is 25!

    That's crazy. Do they heavily enforce it?

    According to his location he's probably on a military installation. They can do whatever they damn well please, I believe.

    I hope they don't end up putting in speed bumps. That would really add to the misery.

    I think I would kill someone if it was 15mph. I'd be so complacent, I wouldn't pay attention to the road or objects. I get tunnel vision usually while in traffic (going -15 PSL) and do not notice as much.

    15 mph: That would be very boring!
