Children at Play Signs

Overview

This is the second most frequently requested residential sign. Those requesting these types of signs often relate stories of children almost getting struck by speeding or reckless drivers.

There have been extremely few children struck by vehicles in residential areas. When a child is hit by a car, the child is usually at fault. Parents must remember and reinforce the rule that streets are meant for vehicles and not as a place for children at play.

All residential areas in Wisconsin have a statutory speed limit of 25 mph unless otherwise posted.
