The warning was on the speed limit sign you blew by. There is no requirement for the officer to let you off on your first ticket.

A square yellow speed sign is not a Speed Limit sign, it is a sign listing the advised speed limit for that turn, but you are not required by law to be going that speed or under while going around that turn.

What is the maximum speed limit in a residential area if theres no sign?

The speed limit for/in residential areas is always 25mph unless otherwise stated, such as, you see a sign that says"15MPH Speed limit". Also school zones(areas near a school) are likely to have a sign saying something like "Speed Limit 15MPH while flashing", this means when the yellow lights on or right above the sign are flashing the speed limit is whatever it says. The only ways for the "while flashing" speed limit is to change(or be "ignored") is if there are police officers and/or crossing guards there directing traffic or if there is a car crash(this would depend on where it happened, how bad the car crash is, how many cars, and any danger zones(for example a car in flames) ).

Is a speed limit sign a warning sign?

The correct answer is NO. A stop sign is considered a Regulatory Sign. Regulatory signs are typically the colors black, white, and/or red. Regulatory signs regulate traffic and tell a driver about a law. Examples include speed limits, yield signs, one way streets, do not enter signs, no turning, no parking, and (yes) stop signs. A warning sign, on the other hand, is typically diamond-shaped and the color yellow, orange or pink. They warn you of possible changes in the use or condition of the roadway ahead. A stop sign is not warning you to stop. It is TELLING you to stop because that is the law.

A pedestrian crossing sign is an example of a regulatory sign?

yes, a STOP sign is one example of a regulatory sign stating a law; in this case, the law is that you must stop at the stop sign before proceeding. Other examples of regulatory signs include: Yield, Do not enter, one-way, no right turn, speed limit, no parking/standing/stopping, no bicycles or pedestrians, etc.


What does A regulatory sign look like?

A regulatory sign STATES the law. An example would be a speed limit sign. That sign regulates the maximum or minimum speed at which you may lawfully drive. Other examples include stop, yield, do not enter, one-way, no parking, no left turn and other signs. Compare to "warning signs", which identify potential road hazards to which you must pay attention and "informational signs", which merely tell you something about the location or how to get to another location.
