Since I'm up next, what's this speed limit?
60 mph, looks almost like a traditional rural 4 lane highway in Virginia.


Ketchup99

Yes it is, and yes it is. It's US-29 between Culpeper and Charlottesville, 60mph.

Since it has been over 24 hours since sprjus4 guessed the speed limit, Someone else may post a picture.

Whoops, that's my bad. I had meant to come back once I was on the computer, but forgot.

Yes. I-696 west of Detroit specifically. A lot of suburban freeways in Michigan are signed at 70 mph, which is somewhat rare in other states (like Ohio only goes up to 65 mph), and combined with the sometimes terrible pavement quality, thought it's a good one for this thread, well at least for those that don't know what Michigan's roads are like.

Recommend blurring out the BGS signage in your image.

Also, if you click "open image in new tab", every information you need to search the road up is placed in front of you on a silver platter.

I will let someone else post an image on here, so you're welcome to play something here since I am here just for some fun...

Alright, I'll jump in then... if that's OK...

Nope...  not in Imperial units!  :-P
It's in Canada isn't it...

No, the image is not from Canada, but there is a reason why I made that comment that should help you figure out the answer if you think about it.

andrepoiy

Yeah I meant 50 MPH, but now I get it. Just have to wait 24 hours.

Because it's in US Customary units?

Yes, but that's not the reason for the comment.

30 MPH?

Darn, I gave too much away with that broad hint... I was hoping we'd work our way down through the 40's first.  :)

30 mph is correct!

doorknob60

Yeah I would not have guessed 30 without the hint haha.

Excuse the GSV screenshot and quick edit.
