Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!

50 was guessed by BlueOutback7.

My bad, not sure how I missed that. Unfortunately it's also not 50.

You have got to be kidding! 20 mph or less would be torture and 60 mph or more would be reckless

I guess I will throw in for 20 mph in case it's not 15.

15 mph?

Yes, it somehow is 15 MPH!

It's Baskins Creek Bypass in Gatlinburg, TN. https://www.google.com/maps/@35.7124287,-83.5081799,3a,75y,63.4h,81.52t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sd2lBFgJmhdqDPdBUXKWpWQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

It's a nice little shortcut to avoid the main section of US-441 in busy Gatlinburg. But I have no idea why they picked 15 MPH. Sure, it's kinda residential, but 25 or 30 would be totally reasonable still. I drove on this once, definitely was in the 25-30 range, I doubt anyone drives 15.

Also, just noticed, in 2018 Street View it was 25 MPH: https://www.google.com/maps/@35.7124317,-83.5081784,3a,75y,70.7h,74.76t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s_dlazYaoCNpFs06R4ICgFQ!2e0!5s20180501T000000!7i13312!8i6656 There must be a story here why they chose to lower it lol.
