Just to let you know 24 hours are required between guesses.

25 mph?

Also, whoops, I missed my turn. I didn't expect to get that one right.

I'm back from my road trip, I'll start following this thread again. Found some new candidates for the thread too. I'll guess 50 MPH.

This one's in MPH. If you want a hint, this one (and the next few I probably will post; a couple of my previous ones were GSV discoveries) is on a road I've personally driven on (and you can see the counties I've visited in my signature).

Going to guess 60 mph.

It looks vaguely like a bit of US 95 north of Sandpoint.

Multi-lane roundabouts are an abomination to mankind.

You guessed right, and pretty close on the location too. It's ID-54 just east of Athol heading towards Farragut State Park.

I always find it interesting the differences in speed limits in different parts of the state. Around Boise, 60 MPH is quite rare (it's on I-184 and a small section of ID-55, but that's about it), you'd probably see 55 or if we're lucky 65 on this road. In the North 60 is much more common (but 65 is more rare, though still used some).

Pretty sure from a sign I spot in the background this is in Washington, probably a state highway. I'll guess 55.

Winner. It's right after a 55 zone, though.

And you'd be correct, since this is WA-141 somewhere north of White Salmon.
