Subject: DDOT-20 is Plenty
Hello Ward 7 ANC Commissioner, Civic Association President, and Community
Stakeholder,
DDOT would like to invite you to Kenilworth Farmers Market and visit our table
to learn more about our 20 Speed Limit Regulations on Saturday July 17th, 2021
at Kenilworth Recreation Center located at 4321 Ord St NE Washington, DC 20019
from 9am-1pm. DDOT will also be providing 20 is Plenty Yard Signs to the
community.
What is 20 is Plenty?
The new speed limit in DC is 20mph, unless otherwise posted. Speed is directly
related to safety. Higher speeds make it harder for drivers to see others on
the road, and it takes longer for them to stop their vehicle. Crashes at higher
speeds are also deadlier.
What are Driver Feedback Signs?
Driver feedback signs show drivers what their current speed is and flash when
it’s over the posted limit. They’re a helpful way to give drivers a real-time
reminder to slow down – and have proven to be effective at reducing speed and
crashes.
