I totally agree. I stumbled over some mistagged nodes (highway=maxspeed) and started to remove them because I thought that they just copy the values of the way, but then I understood that they are probably traffic_signs. I read the wiki a few times and still did not fully understand how this traffic_sign:forward idea should work. dieterdreist wrote >> The corresponding way would start at this node and have >> tags >> maxspeed=60 >> source:maxspeed=sign > > it would not have to start there (because of repeating signs) good point, that's of course right.
