The road you designed is the speed your drivers chose. That's on the engineer.

When speeds consistently exceed the posted limit, the default explanation is driver behavior. But if the geometry communicates a higher speed, drivers are responding to the design. That's a design failure. Engineers who design roads that produce speeds above the limit have designed the wrong road.
