That's the same here in France (90 kph) > On many roads > you can achieve this speed, too.

Yes, but that's very subjective data and a routing system can compute basic data (shape, curves, width...) to estimate the "real" speed. For me routing speed must be computed,it can't be a data into OSM... Adding a tag for subjective speed would be complicate, depend on drivers, weather conditions, night/day, etc... I prefer we think of new tag to specify specific conditions (ie. this crossing has a heavy traffic from 5 PM to 7 PM) it would be more helpful for routing system than a subjective speed... -- Pierre-Alain Dorange OSM experiences : <http://www.leretourdelautruche.com/map/> _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
