To the creature who would beep constantly on a 25-limit residential road in Lakeside, Coppell (Howe: homes, buy)

[lily76]

1, You should re-do your driving licence;

2, Hope one day you dare to beep behind a big truck driving exactly to the speed limit:

3, Driving over-limit is Illegal;

4,Patience is a virtue;

5,Personally I won't drive over speed limit especially on the Community Road where their might be kids playing or walking after school. That is why in the UK, in residential area, we say: twenty is plenty;

Therefore on the residential roads of the community where both of our homes are, as a neighbor I have to be kind enough to let you know:the more you beep the slower I will be.

People who live in the lakeside school area in Coppell, be alarmed that there is a monster who would be driving over 35 on your 25-limit community road and if you happen to be in front of her you might be beeped and your baby scared.

Don't you just love to block in people driving crazy.

I just wish sometimes I had an old 1964 Pickup with a big steel bumper.

60-70% of the drivers in DFW should re-do their license. Many people in this town aren't even qualified to sit in the passengers seat. I can't wait for the self-driving cars to come out.

I don't love it. I have a 100 other ways to entertain myself than blocking a ****ty running idiot. As doing so I put myself in danger. I just felt be so disgusted today.

As a parent, I do think that driving too fast in any residential area is DISGRACEFUL!

These people won't buy self-driving cars. There should be speed cameras on places like residential roads and school district roads. If anyone pass the speed limit for more than a certain times he/she will re-do the licence. Every time I find people suddenly following the speed limit I see a police car somewhere nearby.
The driving limit is not the maximum speed you can drive but the minimum speed you should drive to go on road in the TX driving context.

OP, is the 25-mph speed limit appropriate for the design & condition of the road? Or does it seem too low for the design? You may have your answer there.

I agree that it is maddening to see people flying on residential roads. However, it is not really your job to patrol it. If you see someone going too fast, let them over, and then if you are so inclined, call the cops and ask them to better patrol the speed limit.

Speeders are a problem, but so are people that go to slow. I have seen several accidents caused, in part, by people that go too slow in the passing lane. The people behind them are anxious to go faster and make unnecessary lane changes because some jackwagon insists on going 55 mph in the left lane of the highway.

The single biggest issue, in my opinion, is cell phones. Far more dangerous than speeders or slow pokes.

I live in an area where the posted speed limit is 30 mph in residential areas which I think way to fast. I tend to do 25 in residential areas, sure it ticks people off, however I don't want to be the one who hits a kid or animal so I can save 30 seconds getting home.

The big problem with the speeders in my area are the mini vans and SUVs being driven by soccer moms that are late dropping of the kids for something, that and the newly licensed drivers who think they are invincible.

Please do the speed limit and not 5 mph under. The road's speed is marked appropriately for its conditions and it's not up to you to decide it's wrong. I can only imagine the line of angry drivers behind you who are going to act impulsively and dangerously to get around you. That's much more of a danger than you just driving the posted speed limit. If you're that concerned maybe driving isn't for you.

The road is 's'shaped, and very narrow as well with many cars doing off road parking,and beside it is the community playground. Actually, I would think 20 should be the right limit for that road. 25 is quite high for a residential road. You can not expect 40 as the limit do you?

And most of all, the design of the road limit is not the reason to violate the law.
