It's easy enough to build, but in the US that data is very, very far from complete.
Even in Europe, you will find a lot of ways that are not tagged with maxspeed. You will have to have a fallback mechanism with implied max speeds for each road class, for each country you want to cover. And that's going to be unreliable. You will have to decide if that's acceptable.
