Guess the speed limit challenge

[kphoger]

65 mph

[jakeroot]

75 mph?

[webny99]

Hmm. This one looks kind of familiar for some reason. I'll lowball it at 55 mph.

[Roadgeekteen]

75 mph is correct, US 131 in Michigan. Jakeroot is up next.

[jakeroot]

w00t. Haven't gotten one right for a while! My last two were "steals".



Here is my contribution, which required significant editing to remove location giveaways. MPH:


Road in WA by Jacob Root, on Flickr

50 mph

Seems like a 55 zone. Don't recognize the road, though.

[jakeroot]

50 mph

Nope!

Ahh, my apologies. Also no.

[sprjus4]

45 mph

[jakeroot]

45 mph

Not that either.

[MCRoads]

40 mph?

[SkyPesos]

65 mph?

[webny99]

I guess I'll take 60 mph.

This has to be a trap question, so I'm guessing 35 in an exurban area.

None of these, but not a trap I don't think. But an unusual situation for Washington, I suppose.

I guess I'll take 60 mph.

Looks like I'm passing the baton back to you!


It's US-12 west of Montesano, WA:

It is 55 west of this stretch through Central Park and into Aberdeen, but jumps to 60 east of the Wynoochee River while still undivided (although legally it's divided with the 18-inch solid yellow line). But, it goes physically divided shortly afterwards, a little less than a mile after my GSV screenshot. WA uses 65 even on undivided roads, but haven't seen one posted at 60 that looks like this.

Nice!     It does seem like you, RGT and I have been going around in circles here. I've gone a couple times recently, so someone else can jump in if they'd like.

That explains why I didn't recognize it. Only been on that stretch heading the opposite way in the dark.

There are a few signs specifically telling drivers to not cross the 18-inch line.

I would jump in, but I will let others. But if I notice inactivity I will make a post (or you can webny)

[Roadgeekteen]

70 mph

[sprjus4]

Not 70 or 75 mph.

[SkyPesos]

65 mph

[sprjus4]

65 mph

Nope.

If that's anything less than 65, that's another state on my no-drive list! If it's in tornado alley I could see the lower speed limit as you have to dodge collapsing power towers from the wind falling across the road.

Sometimes exceptions can be made.

At your rate, you'll soon have all 50 states on your no drive list!

Yeah, no kidding! This would be no higher than 55 mph in New York, so that will be my guess.
