According to Tennessee Code Annotated [http://law.justia.com/codes/tennessee/2010/title-55/chapter-8/55-8-152 55-8-152], the following '''maximum''' speed limits apply in Tennessee, with individual counties and municipalities setting lower speeds on individual roads as needed:
 
Interstates and limited access freeways (urban and rural): 70 MPH
Divided highways: 65 MPH
Undivided and two-lane roads: 55 MPH
Residential streets: 30 MPH
 
Before verifying a speed limit in the editor, it MUST be confirmed either with the street view reticle in WME, reports from "on the ground", or using data provided by individual municipalities if available. A list of speed limit data collected by editors can be found on [[Tennessee/Speed_Limits|this page]].
