1. Speed limit 25 or less, go 5 mph under. These are usually residential rodes with kids. 2. Speed limit 30, go no more than 5 miles over. 3. Speed limit 40 or 50, go no more than 10 mph over. 4. Speed limit 55, go no more than 13 over. 5. Speed limit 65, skies the limit!

And I've been quite a few places where the speed limit is 10 or 15. Much like 25-30, you do not want to exceed this. Usually those limits are at places like airports or schools (with high pedestrian traffic) or publicly accessible military bases. You never want to speed in these situations. |

Good morning, folks! Taking the Z in tomorrow for its 15,000 mile checkup. I detailed her yesterday evening to get rid of the grime from the Boston trip. Now, she's looking . I still have to vacuum the interior, though.

thanks on the lens input. folks have told me 35mm would be better than 50mm for car since i can take shots without backing up via sneaker zoom. i can also get the slight distortion i like to emphasize roundness on some shots, and use for scenic shots as well. not sure.. i will need to think this over more.

A verrry wide (could be a four lane road) street that is smooth and has great visibility is posted at 25mph. The next street over which is narrow, bumpy AND runs alongside the middle school, is posted at 35mph. My neighbourhood, which is residential with lots of children present, has narrow streets that are barely two cars wide and necks down to the width of one car when people park in front of their houses, is posted at 25mph. I'd like to see it reduced to 15 or even 10mph. I think some of the 65mph zones in PA carry a double fine and double points for speeding. I think NJ has the same. I did a fair bit of driving in Ohio yesterday. I was going 10 over in the 70mph zones and was passing people like they were standing still. I have a feeling they are pretty strict there, too, now that I think about it. Drove home from Pittsburgh this morning. Three and a half hours in a torrential downpour on the PA Turnpike. The RE-11's did great, but it's easy to see that the roadway wasn't designed to drain the amount of water that was falling from the sky this morning. I hit quite a few patches that resembled ponds and streams. That got a little dicey!

Good morning all.
My 2 cents on speed limit is around here you basically shouldn't go more than 5 MPH over the posted limit on any road except highway. Highway is 10 over Max. 7 over in a 55 MPH non interstate/highway road Can get you a ticket in Illinois....stupid I know. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2

My take on speed limits is that I make up my own. I respect residential and school zones but highways or backroads all bets are off. Gimme a ticket, I dont care. I cant drive 55.
