I've argued for years that lower speed limits in the city would improve overall traffic flow--not reduce it. Folks like @Lance inevitably point to some outdated study that focused on the traffic characteristics of segregated interstate highways. Notwithstanding the fact that interstates and surface streets have nearly nothing to do with one another, it's good to see that even the special case of "fast speeds on interstates equals better throughput" has been debunked.
