Minimum Speed Sign

A Minimum Speed Sign is a regulatory traffic sign that indicates the minimum speed at which vehicles must travel on a particular roadway or section of highway. It typically features a white number inside a blue circle on a rectangular white background.

The purpose of a Minimum Speed sign is to ensure that vehicles maintain a safe and consistent speed, especially on highways or freeways where slower speeds can impede traffic flow and lead to hazardous conditions. These signs are often used in conjunction with Maximum Speed Limit signs to regulate the speed range within which vehicles should operate.

Drivers encountering a Minimum Speed sign must adhere to the specified minimum speed to help maintain safe and efficient traffic movement. This sign is particularly important on roads where slower speeds might pose risks to other vehicles or cause disruptions in traffic flow.
