How fast do you go

I was on I-90 West bound all the the way to Seattle or anywhere else in WA and never saw any signs like that. I got in the wrong lane coming out of Seattle and wound up on I-90 and then I saw a sign that said no flammable. OOPs too late as I had a 5gal gas can in the bed of the truck for my generator

You will not see signs with 70 mph cars, trucks below it showing 60 mph, UNLESS you are on I5 south of Olympia, north of Marysville. On I90, you will see the sign outside of Issaquah, about 15 or so miles east of Seattle I5/I90 interchange. You will also see this sign going out of any other place where there is a higher density of vehicles driving, like Spokane, Vancouver near Portland. Parts of Bellingham, Mount Vernon to name a few other places where the Interstate is limited to 60mph no matter the vehicle. At one time, might still be, there was a 1-2 mile stretch in downtown seattle where the limit was 50-55 no matter what you are driving. Their are also places with variable speed signs, like parts of Seattle, I90 over snoqualmie pass for winter driving to name two that I can think of off the top of my head.
Chain up your rig signs, you only find at the bottom of a mountain pass, Nov 1 to April 1, unless later in April if there has been a lot of snow, still on forecast etc. Then it might be extended to AP 15 is latest I have seen it. If you have a tandem, or are over 10K registered weight, During this Nov to APril time frame, you are required by law to carry chains on your rig at all times, In case WSP puts chains required out for roads even in the lowlands. Unless you cross a scale, this is probably a mute issue. 4WD for rigs over 10K does not help you either, you still need chains if the chains sign, broadcast is up and going!
