Comments

Waldo J., tracking this bill in Photosynthesis, notes:

This seems reasonable. I live on just such a road, and while I'm comfortable driving considerably faster on it, I appreciate that it's probably not safe to exceed 35 MPH on it if you're familiar with it, and that's probably true with most unpaved roads.
