This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
You should check with the road authority because they might be fake.
One day I was driving down a road that I'd driven down many times when I spotted a new speed limit. It was posted in a weird location and the speed was odd.
I contacted the local main roads department and learnt that they didn't know about these signs. The next day they were gone.
Agreed, having a minimum speed sign on a stroad is just begging for pedestrian deaths. It would be such an obvious liability that nobody in charge of transportation would allow it.
Freeways/expressways around me are 45 mph minimum. They are normally mounted below the limit sign.

But I have seen small tack on signs that are the same in most regards.

Supposedly minimum speed limit signs do exist in California? No issue with checking anyway, I was curious is all
That can't be common. And I've definitely seen minimum speed signs that persisted for years so I don't find them suspicious at all
Jesus. That Chevy is right up that guy's ass.
Welcome to driving in America.
Tbh I have no idea why so many people in this country tailgate. Do they not understand simple physics?
A relative of mine rear ended someone and couldn't understand why they were at fault for the accident. Just kept saying the person in front of them just stopped out of nowhere and there was nothing they could do.
People just don't realize they're supposed to give that much distance to the person in front of them. You're supposed to be able to stop without hitting the person in front of you if they, for any reason, stop without warning.
In my area the driving manual only discusses stopping/following distances for the commercial drivers license, not the standard drivers license
I know here in Brazil there's a minimum speed limit on highways of 50% the max, but there are no signs, and it doesn't apply in heavy traffic.
In Denmark we have a single piece of highway were we have a "crawl lane". It's slightly uphill and outside the lane you must go at least 80km/h. I know it is more common in Southern Europe.
Here in Germany, the Autobahn has a minimum speed cars need to be able to go (60 kph) although it’s not a minimum speed you necessarily need to drive.
However, we do have a dedicated minimum speed sign, but it’s very rare and usually only used in very specific places. The only one I know is a long and windy bridge on the side of a small mountain where, depending on your lane, you need to go at least 60, 80 or 90, I think.
Sorry for running over your child, ma'am, but rules are rules.
slow down to stop at traffic signal
car explodes like in speed
Lots of white knuckled old people and nervous drivers.
That has to be a misprint or a photoshop. There is zero chance of a minimum 30 mph (or kph) inside city limits, especially with a perpendicular entrance/exit right there.
Maybe the installer didn’t notice it said minimum haha
Amish country in PA?
I've seen signs like that on the bridge from Virginia to Maryland. It makes sense though, it can be very dangerous with a large speed differential on that particular bridge. It's kind of a scary bridge. My ex-wife refused to drive on it.
Pretty good shot for going that fast
