This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

You should check with the road authority because they might be fake.
One day I was driving down a road that I'd driven down many times when I spotted a new speed limit. It was posted in a weird location and the speed was odd.
I contacted the local main roads department and learnt that they didn't know about these signs. The next day they were gone.

Supposedly minimum speed limit signs do exist in California? No issue with checking anyway, I was curious is all

Agreed, having a minimum speed sign on a stroad is just begging for pedestrian deaths. It would be such an obvious liability that nobody in charge of transportation would allow it.

Freeways/expressways around me are 45 mph minimum. They are normally mounted below the limit sign.

But I have seen small tack on signs that are the same in most regards.

I know here in Brazil there's a minimum speed limit on highways of 50% the max, but there are no signs, and it doesn't apply in heavy traffic.
In Denmark we have a single piece of highway were we have a "crawl lane". It's slightly uphill and outside the lane you must go at least 80km/h. I know it is more common in Southern Europe.
Here in Germany, the Autobahn has a minimum speed cars need to be able to go (60 kph) although it’s not a minimum speed you necessarily need to drive.
However, we do have a dedicated minimum speed sign, but it’s very rare and usually only used in very specific places. The only one I know is a long and windy bridge on the side of a small mountain where, depending on your lane, you need to go at least 60, 80 or 90, I think.
Sorry for running over your child, ma'am, but rules are rules.
Lots of white knuckled old people and nervous drivers.
That has to be a misprint or a photoshop. There is zero chance of a minimum 30 mph (or kph) inside city limits, especially with a perpendicular entrance/exit right there.
Maybe the installer didn’t notice it said minimum haha
slow down to stop at traffic signal
