Speed law revision urged for Iowa highways
Governor Wilsons Traffic Safety Commission heard a report by Ralph A. Moyer of Iowa State College urging revision of speed laws. He proposed speed zones on sharp curves and built up areas to aid safety and enforcement, noting universal speed laws are impractical and many states are adopting absolute or prima facie limits. The report also touched on enforcement challenges and the rise of speed zoning as a solution.
