US Rte 250 Northbound at city limit

Mannington, West VirginiaDec 30, 20020 Comments

Route 250 into town is a long gradual hill. The speed limit drops from 40/45 to 25 about 1/4 mile before the actual city limit. Motorists must ride the brakes all the way down the hill. Police run radar while sitting in or across from a DOT equipment yard – it is also a favorite spot of their for DUI enforcement. Ironically, the northbound side of this 2-lane road increases to 40 MPH *as soon as you cross the city limit*. In other words, there are two speed limits assigned to the same stretch of 2-lane road. This contradiction just begs to be challenged in court, but I have been lucky enough to avoid this trap.
