      usually for the sole purpose of being a revenue generating speed trap. In fact I just looked it up and this intersection is a school zone with a 20mph speed limit.

      You think maybe there’s other reasons bar revenue traps at play here then?

          There’s also the word “usually” there, and I stick by it. Nice gotcha tho.

          Maybe even if it’s not a school zone there could be reasons you might want to limit car speeds that have nothing to do with revenue traps is my point

              Braking really isn’t that hard in a car and it’s not like you lose a meaningful amount of time doing the speed limit for a podunk town. This entire argument can only begin to make sense with a lot of carbrained entitlement
