Every neighborhood street I have driven south of 466 has a posted speed limit of 15 MPH. Turn onto a neighborhood street off of O'Dell Circle and you will see the posted speed of 15 MPH.

I have not seen a posted speed limit on the multi-modal path except on Morse crossing the bridge, but would like to see posted speed limits.

Interesting. Does that mean that 15 MPH limits violate state law?

I've been paying more attention to speed limit signs lately. Halle is correct .... as far as I can tell everything south of Lake Sumter Landing has a 15 mph speed limit sign on every side street (designers and ranches...not sure about villa neighborhoods).

But, if you go north of 466 not so consistent. Speed limit sign on Oak Forest Dr (now I can't remember if it was 25 or 30) but nothing on any of the side streets that feed from it.

I really think 15mph is too slow for neighborhood side streets ... 20 (or even 25) makes more sense to me. JMHO.

I would doubt if anyone, anyone is driving 15mph. If I were a bookie I place the over under at 1%. I've only visited but I have yet to see anyone drive that slow.

Everyone needs to look at themselves in the mirror before you tell me you drive 15 or less. I simply don't believe it. And I won't until I witness it for myself.

Paint the speed on the road at each stop sign.

Last week I drove through a couple of neighborhoods north of 466 and the speed limit signs read 25mph but south of 466 all I have ever seen is 15mph. So why is there no consistency in the same county?

Which roads? All of the "main roads" - Tally Ho, Belle Meade Circle, Oak Forest for example are 25 mph. I have checked entrances to the villas and residential areas and they are 10 MPH and 15 MPH respectively.

San Marino Drive. It does not have a marked golf cart lane just like the roads here in Hadley and the sign reads 25mph.

I live south of 466 in Poinciana and haven't noticed any 15 mph speed limit signs. Still looking!!!!

I live in Mallory (fourth winter) off of Odell and until I read this thread I never noticed a sign at the end of Murphys Estate that said 15 MPH. It is there clear as day, maybe time for that eye exam for me :shrug:

In my travels today....

Bridgeport at Lake Sumter... Limit is 15 on the main road in.

A little further up in Winifred...Kingston road is 25 and none of the side streets that feed off of it have signs so I guess they inherit the 25.

Cross 466 to Polo Ridge and Oak forest Dr ... Limit is 25 with no signs on the cross streets.

So, I assume that somewhere from Bridgeport south they determined that neighborhoods should be 15 and not 25. Same streets, same flows, wonder why the difference.

I'm sure there are highway and road design standards that dictate speed for conditions. Same conditions in two different areas... One is 25 the other 15. How come???? Very inconsistent.

mph in a golf cart
 

I have rented there in TV many times and I will be there for 2 weeks after Thanksgiving...Let me say happy holidays everybody....Any way I have rented many golf carts and none of them had a speedometer...How are you suppose to know how fast you are going without one....

If you're keeping up with all the other carts... you're exceeding the speed limit.

Take a GPS along with you on your next cart ride. It was an eye-opener for me!! :22yikes:
