It would be less confusing if it was installed below the 45 mph sign on the same post. When the Villages 20 mph signs were first installed I asked the county why they were not yellow advisory signs instead of white and was told they had to be regulatory signs, not advisory. Seems backwards to me since they advise and are not establishing a speed limit in that area.
