20 mph is so fucking slow, nobody is going to respect that. I’d rather people go a little bit faster than to be one of those extremely slow old folks who shouldn’t be operating machinery anyways.

Cops in my area don't ticket unless you're going 15 mph over the limit, and cops in most areas do the same (the number of mph over the limit they give you varies), so someone who's not even reaching the limit isn't driving that way to avoid tickets.
15 and 20 should only be used the last couple of hundred feet, exiting the collector and going into the neighborhood street. The collector should have a speed limit of at least 30, with wide sidewalks, marked crosswalks and proper safety for mixed use.
You should never have to drive longer than half a mile on such collector, until you enter a urban road (not a stroad), where speed limits are 45-50, with few connections and where you only slow down for the few roundabouts granting access to the collectors.
Then after a mile or two you should be outside the city limit, with access to autobahn with no speed limits, or country roads with 70 or so, (not enforced) in speed limits, and with common sense to slow down a bit when passing farms.
Country roads should never go directly through a village, there should be a parallel collector to those, with 40 or so in speed limit, only slowing down to 30 outside the church and at most 20 a couple of hundred feet outside the school.
