Looks like Knight St in Vancouver. Is it 60?

Yep, you got the right location and speed. I thought this was surprisingly low when I drove it in the summer (street view link).

Nice! The electrical pylon in the background seemed familiar and six lane expressways, though common in Vancouver, don't have a ton of bridges. So I was thinking it had to be Knight St. But didn't actually check. Luckily I guessed 60, almost guessed 50!

I'll post something new tonight once I'm home.

Just a friendly reminder that it's your turn jakeroot.

Guess I'm gonna take my sweet time getting to this! Apologies for holding the thread hostage.

Limit is in MPH.

40

Yep, nice!

Tacoma Mall Blvd, Tacoma, WA: https://goo.gl/maps/LAxkX7pu1uCWqiZH9

Virtually every road in Tacoma is 25 or 35. Only this short quarter-mile segment, and a few other divided roads, have 40 MPH segments. This road was 35 but was recently (mysteriously) bumped to 40, but only this brief stretch.

I won't be able to post another image for about a week. Someone else can go.

Correct! This is FM-528 on the west side of Friendswood, TX (hence the clue).
