Explanation
In a residential area, the speed limit is 25 mph, unless otherwise posted. Do not exceed 25 mph while driving through a residential neighborhood, even if there are no signs posted. Residential areas are often densely populated, and going too fast can be dangerous and increase the risk of accidents. Drive at a slower speed to ensure the safety of pedestrians, bicyclists, and other motorists.
