May be easier to get back to this when you can access a computer.

Given that it has been over 24 hours, I am going to keep this going. SafeSpeeder, once you figure out how to share photos, I'm sure we can slip you in.

25 mph

Bingo! Freeman Road, Fife, WA (looking the other direction, downstream a bit).

Always thought it was a bit low. 35 seems a bit more reasonable. I don't think Fife wants the road to be popular.

I mean 80 mph.
That's a bad guess there are no 2 lane roads in America with an 80 mph speed limit.

Right, it could be England...
I'm pretty sure that there are no 80 mph two laners in the UK either.

Well, obviously, but the UK is the only other nation I know of with speed limits in mph.

There are actually a significant number of nations and territories that use miles-per-hour, mostly due to British or American colonialism (not always though). But certainly none that have regions resembling your picture.
