I see this problem a bit bigger:

I think we should have a general register that defines what a tag implies for 
each road-law region (usually an entire country).
(And this data should ideally not be stored in the Wiki, but rather inside OSM, 
or a file you can download to use in your routing-software.)
For example all our highways are 120, but they are not tagged as such. So it's 
up to uninformed drivers and router-planners to figure this out.

That or we define at-least the default and each mapper get to define the 
differences from the world-wide norm.
(But this will cause newcomers to make many mistakes)

(If there is already such a thing, still rather green ;)

Killian
