Ask Chicagoist: What’s the Speed Limit?
This letter to Chicagoist draws attention to a major human factors problem in urban traffic law enforcement: posting of speed limits at the borders of city limits.
“Dear Chicagoist, I’ve been driving around Chicago for a couple years and I can’t recall seeing a single speed limit sign on any city streets. Is there a standard speed limit within the city or are we all allowed to drive like cabbies out there?”
