In a move that may raise eyebrows, Outagamie County in Wisconsin has set a speed limit of 17.3 mph. This specific figure is not arbitrary, according to county officials.
The rationale behind this unusual speed limit is to improve safety on the roads. Officials believe that the peculiarity of the number will compel drivers to pay closer attention to the speed limit signs.
While some may question the effectiveness of such a precise limit, the county is optimistic that it will lead to safer driving conditions.
