Speeding is one of the top complaints submitted to the City.

The speed limit on local, residential roads is 25 mph unless otherwise marked. This is set by California Vehicle Code. Speed limits are only modified when necessary and must be justified and established by engineering studies that encompass roadway conditions, accident records, and the existing speeds at which most vehicles travel. 

To slow speeding cars and encourage safer driving, the City uses educational messaging, extra signage, engineering solutions (such as speed humps), and law enforcement. We encourage all of our drivers to adhere to the posted speed limits and keep their eyes on the road at all times.
