The posted speed limit is for when the weather is dry, and good conditions.

A driver is always supposed to slow down when the weather is bad, rain, slow down, snow even slower. Ice, be very careful!

You are supposed to drive defensively, and remember, common courtesy while on the road.

So please, in bad weather, someone is driving slower, slow down.

Also, please consider what the other driver is doing--looking for an address? Or street number/sign?

The sensible driver is the one who is driving slower, due to the bad weather conditions.

Take care.
