My huband has informed me as well as police that the yellow mile signs are only suggested speeds. EX: The exit sign or curve sign that say 15 or whatever milage. Now IF you have an accident and over the posted speed limit you will get a ticket. Do many people know that? I think it is so sillly.

The yellow signs are suggested safe speeds for those conditions. But you can be given a ticket for exceeding the speed deemed safe for the present conditions( now including weather) by an officer even if there is no accident.

Yellow signs are advisory, not regulatory. However, most states have a law that requires motorists to drive within a safe speed limit for the conditions. So it is possible to get a ticket for going 40 mph in a 55 mph zone.
Ignore the obligatory thumbs-down from my stalker, who has severe problems.
