without signs posted there are still general restrictions for vehicles, e.g. in 
Germany this is 4 meters height and 2,50 width. It is not a maxwidth for the 
road (hence should not be tagged like that) but its effect surely was taken 
into account when designing the road. There are of course vehicles that exceed 
these general maximum dimensions and have to be moved in exceptional convoys 
(i.e. would be nice to have real dimensions in osm to be able to assist 
planning even in these cases).
