According to http://www.house.leg.state.mn.us/hrd...ss/ssspdlt.pdf
"On a residential roadway, local authorities can reduce the speed limit to 25 mph." and to 15 mph in school zones.
I also wonder what would happen if all of the kids that today ride on the sidewalk suddenly started riding in the roadway and causing all the cars to slow to 10 mph.
Good to hear that you have so many kids riding. These days I see so few kids bicycling that I don't think it would have any significant impact on other traffic no matter where they were riding.
