The 85th percentile rule is why Civil Engineers catch shit about not being real engineers. It’s basically:
“How fast can cars safely go on this road?”
“I dunno. How fast are they going now?”
Speed limit should be factored into (and a function of) road design, not just measured and guessed at after the fact.
Speed limits should only exist on surface roads and sections of interstate that go through town.
