The 85th percentile speed is a measurement used in traffic engineering and transportation studies to indicate the speed at which 85% of vehicles are traveling at or below on a particular stretch of road at a given time. In essence, it is a statistical measure that helps identify the speed at which most drivers are comfortable driving without feeling the need to speed. To calculate the 85th percentile speed, traffic speed data is collected from a specified site over a certain period.
