(WLUK) — A new speed limit in a portion of Outagamie County is meant to snap drivers out of autopilot.
Outagamie County Recycling & Solid Waste posted its new speed limit signs on its property Monday.
The speed limit is set to an odd number: 17.3 mph.
Why 17.3? Because it makes you pause. It makes you look twice. And most importantly, it breaks that “autopilot” feeling we can all fall into when driving familiar routes.Comment with Bubbles
