New laws

Effective Aug. 1, 2019, new laws allow cities to set speed limits on certain city streets, after conducting an internal traffic study.

Why we have speed limits

A uniform speed of vehicles in a traffic flow results in the safest operation. Posted speed limits can help keep the traffic flowing smoothly provided the majority of drivers find the speed limits reasonable. This is called “voluntary compliance.” To best achieve voluntary compliance, the speed limits must be consistent throughout the state. Speed limits also give motorist an idea of a reasonable speed to drive in an unfamiliar location.

When established properly, speed limits are essential for law enforcement to identify excessive speeds and curb unreasonable behavior.

How we set speed limits

By statute

Minn. Statute 169.14 establishes statutory speed limits on most typical roadways under ideal conditions. Unless otherwise posted:

  • 10 mph in alleys
  • 30 mph on streets in urban districts
  • 55 mph on other roads
  • 65 mph on expressways
  • 65 mph on urban interstate highways
  • 70 mph on rural interstate highways

Based on a traffic study

All other speed limits are set by the Commissioner of Transportation based upon an engineering and traffic investigation. These factors are considered:

  • Road type and condition
  • Location and type of access points (intersections, entrances, pedestrian access, etc.)
  • Sufficient length of roadway (1/4 mile minimum)
  • Existing traffic control devices (signs, signals, etc.)
  • Crash history, traffic volume, sight distances (curve, hill, etc.)
  • Travel speed samples
  • Test drive results speed study

Types of speed limits

Alexandria
Regulatory

A black and white sign shows the maximum speed that a motorist may travel under ideal conditions. It can be a statutory value or else it must be authorized by the Commissioner of Transportation.

Advisory

A black and yellow speed sign is used with a hazard warning sign to advise motorists of a comfortable speed to navigate certain situations. For instance, when traveling on a winding road, the curve warning sign would be used with an advisory speed sign.

School zone

Ensuring the safety of children who cross public streets near schools is the responsibility of drivers, parents, school officials and road authorities. When combined with proven safety strategies, school zone speed limits can be effective.

Speed and safety

Lower speed limits don't reduce speeds

Speed

Studies show that there is little change in speed patterns after posting a lower speed limit. Drivers are much more influenced by changes to the roadway, its environment and conditions.

Lower speed limits don't reduce crash frequency

Lower speed limits are often viewed as a quick fix to traffic safety, but this is not the case. Crashes are most often the result of other factors. In many cases, posting a lower speed limit creates a greater speed variance between the slowest and fastest-moving vehicles. This speed variance, also called “speed differential,” can contribute to crashes and make the roadway less safe.
