@oboe: I agree that the safe speed on narrow streets in capitol hill is lower than the speed limit, 25 mph. On my street, thank God, I think it is largely respected. OTOH, the speed limit is a coarse instrument that does not account for varying conditions: the safe speed can and does change within a block, too short of a distance to post signs and expect people to respond. So what to do?

On Pennsylvania Ave there is the opposite problem. Speed limit is 30 (which I think is reasonable speed to go) but people drive 40-45. The limit is not enforced.
