Here are some Fast Facts about speeding from KKAD25 and NHTSA:

• Speeding in residential neighborhoods represents the single greatest complaint to police departments and city councils throughout the U.S.
• Most speeders on your street live in right in the neighborhood.

• It is not unusual for speeders to be clocked in excess of 40 mph (and even 50 mph on occasion) in 25 mph zones.

• If you hit a pedestrian driving at just 20 mph, 5% will die. At 30 mph the death rate increases to 45% and at 40 mph it climbs even higher to 85%.

Seton offers products to help you reduce traffic to safe speeds in your community including Speed Limit Signs and Speed Bumps.
