US Highway 63 near State Route K
Speed limit drops pretty quick from 65 to 45 no warning. By the time you see and then hit the 45 sign you are still running at 55. I never got a ticket but I alwayt thought there should be some type of warning for unfamiliar traffic. Lot of truckers come this way, Hwy 63 South of Rolla, going into Licking, Mo.
