LOL bmw . . . wow, excuse me for having an opinion about this. That opinion is 15 mph is too slow.  I'm sorry it angers you.  What makes you think I don't drive 15, deal with, etc.?  I'm simply questioning how we get to 15 mph.  Why not 25?  Why not 5?  Perhaps when safety is involved we should not dare to ask such questions.  If that qualifies me as having a stick in my ass, then so be it.

LOL!
It actualy was 25mph and was reduced to 15... 'Cause it is dangerous!

Looking at the photo, I can't understand why it is not 35. Oh, yea, 'cause that would be too fast for car, truck, pedestrian, bicycle traffic and construction workers to all share the road.

It is temporary! Get over it or use a different route. If you do use this route, follow the posted speed limit for safety's sake. It was set for a reason, not to cause you an extra 25 seconds on your way to get where you are going.

Boy, it seems like no one has ANY patience in this town.  I just went through that dip last night for the first time and it is hairy!! you are in the middle of a turn as you go over a blind hill and people want to speed through it?  Are you people dillusional or just stupid?  You can't take 1 minute of time to drive through a construction zone, no less, to make sure everyone is safe INCLUDING YOU!!  and yea, I love it when people complain about the Maricopa police for actually doing their job?  If you don't want a ticket here is a little hint to guarantee it......DONT BREAK THE LAW!!!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
