At an uncontrolled intersection where you can't see cross traffic during the last 100 feet before crossing, the speed limit is:
|
20 MPH.
|
|
|
25 MPH.
|
|
|
35 MPH.
|
|
|
15 MPH.
|
Explanation
As a driver, it is important to exercise caution and maintain a safe speed at uncontrolled intersections, especially if the view of cross traffic is limited. In these "blind" intersections, the speed limit is set at 15 mph to allow enough time for drivers to assess their surroundings, react to any potential hazards and enter the intersection safely. By slowing down, you increase your visibility, reducing the chances of collision with cross traffic. Remember, safety always comes first!
