Stefani Road Speed Limit Lowered North Of 10 Mile Road

November 2, 2020

The Escambia County Commission has lowered the speed limit on a portion of Stefani Road.

The commission voted to lower the 40 mph speed limit to 35 mph on Stefani Road from West 10 Mile Road to West Roberts Road. The change was made after complaints from residents and subsequent studies.

The change created a consistent speed limit on Stefani Road in a residential community.  The speed limit on Stefani Road south of West Roberts Road was already 35 mph.

    Whenever I go to town, I use this route. I turn onto Tate School Rd from 29 to West Roberts then down Stefani. I ALWAYS go under the speed limit because the roads in Escambia County are so jacked up I like to be able to see the holes so I can avoid them. Plus, I can’t stand to drive in traffic so I take back roads whenever possible. Especially at night. These idiots with the blinding new LED lights will ride my butt, that’s when I hit the light bar mounted on the back of my truck and they back tf up (-: Anyway, don’t lump us all in together. I think about what I would do if someone were speeding down my neighborhood. Roofing tacks work fairly well.

    Yea hardly anyone obeys it. Pointless if a cop doesn’t enforce it ever. They didnt even go 45 when it was 45. Used as a cut through street so ppl wanna go 50 or 60 down it.

    If unenforced…… meaningless. Some will obey, most will not

    i live on another cut through in the area so I speak from experience; speed humps and speed limits do nothing. People use these as challenges and go faster. I see them catch air all the time. The only people who care are the ones who live here, but then they speed down Stefani to get to work. Where do the brilliant commissioners think all these mystery speeders are coming from? The circle of life!

    The speed limit should be 60mph on this road. The only people that drive the speed limit on this road are people lost in the neighborhood or using it as a bypass for 9 mile rd. We need to continue scaring people to not use this area as a bypass. Vroom vroom….

    I find it funny that anyone would get on here and act so righteous about someone else speeding.

    In Escambia county speed limit signs are looked at as suggested speed. They mean nothing.

    That’s not going to stop the speeders.

    Yeah im sure cars will still go flying around me at 60 mph as always. People know traffic stops and speed traps are non existent in this area and drive the way they do because of that.

    I see tag readers connected to radar in the future.

    Dropping the speed limit won’t change a thing for most folks driving that road. It’ll be the same old 50-60mph…..watch and see!

    Hmmmmm , on ten mile road through a residential area it’s 40mph, but In century its 35mph on a wide four lane hwy with a paved median, go figure, if it’s residential it should be 25 mph .
