Projects Indiana Speed Limit Implementation With the help of the tools Terry developed, generated maps for tracking speed limit implementation Editors were not excited about SL implementation and the overwhelming number of segments that would need work. I jumped in and gave a helping hand to show SMs aren't immune to having to do that hard work, too! Inspiring lower ranks to join in the effort and eventually brought us from a low of 36th place to 4th in scored completion, from the Waze speed limit sheet.
