Speed Limit Signs FAQ

What is the standard speed limit sign?

The MUTCD R2-1 speed limit sign is a white vertical rectangle with a black “SPEED LIMIT” legend and black numerals. It posts the maximum legal speed on a road and is the most common regulatory speed sign in the United States.

Can I order a speed limit sign with a custom MPH?

Yes. The R2-1 speed limit sign can be printed with any posted speed — 5, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55 MPH and higher — so you get the exact limit you need.

What sizes do speed limit signs come in?

Speed limit signs come in standard sizes such as 18x24, 24x30, and 30x36 inches. 24x30 is common on conventional roads, with larger sizes used on highways. See the R2-1 speed limit sign page for full dimensions and weights.

What is the difference between Speed Zone Ahead and Reduced Speed Ahead signs?

Speed Zone Ahead (R2-5c) warns that a new speed zone is coming up, while Reduced Speed Ahead (R2-5a) warns specifically that the speed limit is about to drop. Both give drivers time to slow down before the new limit begins.

Do you offer school and work zone speed limit signs?

Yes. School speed limit signs (including “When Flashing” and school-zone versions) and work zone speed limit signs have their own dedicated categories — see the School Speed Limit and Work Zone Speed Limit collections.

Are your speed limit signs MUTCD compliant?

The R2-series speed limit signs meet MUTCD specifications for public roads. They are made on rust-proof .080-inch aluminum with High Intensity Prismatic or engineer-grade reflective sheeting, with roll-up versions available for temporary use.
