It appears that very few drivers actually obey the speed limit as it is posted. Where I live, for example, the vast majority of vehicles travel between 15mph to 30mph OVER the speed limit and that is WAY too fast with children, bicyclists, dog walkers and the elderly in the area.

This particular road in Schenectady County, NY, is a very busy yet residential road. The speed limit is marked between 25mph and 30mph, depending on the curves and corners you encounter. Were you caught going well over the speed limit?
