10 mph? Really? Is this an official posting of any sort? I've never heard of such a low posted speed limit, except for school zones. It may not even be defensible in court.

Speed limits must be reasonable for any given road. For example, a posted speed limit of 30 mph on an interstate highway (not that it would ever happen) would not be upheld in court. Seems like 10 mph in a village might be similar. 10 mph is a crawl.
