CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING ASSEMBLY BILL 1885, AN
ACT TO AMEND SECTIONS 627, 22350, AND 22351 OF THE VEHICLE
CODE RELATING TO VEHICLES
WHEREAS, existing law defines an engineering and traffic survey to be a
survey of highway and traffic conditions in accordance with methods determined by the
Department of Transportation and lists factors that must be included in the survey; and,
WHEREAS, engineering and traffic surveys are used, in conjunction with
other factors, to set speed limits; and,
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 1885 would establish posted speed limits as
absolute speed limits; and,
WHEREAS, Assembly Bill 1885 would requirethat pedestrians and bicyclists'
safety, as well as impact and quality of life, be considered as factors in engineering and
traffic surveys; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of San Juan Capistrano believes
greaterweight should be placed on these factors, above and beyond the prevailing speed,
in establishing speed limits.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of
San Juan Capistrano does hereby support passage of Assembly Bill 1885, "An Act to
amend Sections 627, 22350, and 22351 of the Vehicle Code, relating to Vehicles," as
