Agreed, for I share the same standard rules. I was doing approx 60-65 on
those rural Vermont roads where the limit is 50, except from GG north when
the road conditions went to crap yesterday. That's everything except for the
villages of Ft. Ann, Whitehall, Proctor, Brandon, Rochester and Hancock
along that route, and all but Whitehall and Proctor are reduced for a very,
very short duration. I pretty much hug the posted limits in towns and
villages when those nasty little "Reduced Speed Ahead" signs appear.

I'd still like to find a way that avoids Proctor, for just that reason, but
in the absence of something better I'll stick to that route.
