Speed Limits in CT
So, it appears there's some confusion about speed limits in CT and I wanted to open up a discussion to the public at large so we can figure out the best solution.
AndyPoms recently found a helpful list of approved speed limits posted on the ConnDOT website, broken out by town. This makes it easy to know exactly what the speed limit should be for all major roads in the state. Unfortunately, the reality is that posted signage can sometimes contradict this list, such as when towns decide to put up their own signs or during long-term construction projects.
Obviously, the best solution would be to notify ConnDOT of any incorrect signs and have them take care of it, but that could take eons. So in the meantime, how should we handle it in Waze? Do we map to the list and cause confusion among drivers when their speedometer doesn't match reality, or do we map to the signs and hope no one gets a traffic ticket because they assume Waze is legally binding?
YOU DECIDE!!
