Last week we educated you about stop signs. If you missed it: 🛑 red sign = STOP!

For this #TrafficTipTuesday, let us introduce the SPEED LIMIT sign! Though not as colorful as its octagonal friend, it is equally important and deserves your attention. The words on the sign are self-explanatory.🤔 The numbers tell you the vehicle’s maximum speed. While the speed limit DOES vary from road to road, the need to obey these limits DOES NOT! Make sure the number on your speedometer does not exceed the posted number on the black and white sign.

Cliff notes — Your car’s enthusiasm isn’t a valid excuse for going 90 in a 30 zone. 🚗💨
