I was on a walking tour this morning of Benicia, a small town in California with a bit of history. There are several historic buildings in town, each with a bronze plaque describing why it is important.

Then, I saw this sign and thought to myself, this is odd enough to qualify for this thread.

This speed limit sign of 17.3 mph has a subtle psychological impact.

Many, many years ago, I took over a new position in my company. I held my first meeting with my new team at 8am the next day. The next morning, half of my team was there on time while the other half strolled in 5 to 10 minutes late. I was a bit surprised but I didn't say anything about it at the time. It was a great group of people and I didn't want to start off on the wrong foot.

At the next staff meeting, I asked my secretary (remember those) to put out the staff meeting memo (remember those) with a start time of 7:54am.

Every single team member was on time for that meeting and for most every meeting thereafter.

I read...

The goal is not to get drivers to travel at exactly 17.3 mph, but to disrupt routines - especially frequent visitors - and prompt them to check their speed and surroundings.

BTW, I believe that sign is in Wisconsin.
