It's certainly less effort to build and implement a table of defaults than to tag every single way, but the question is: whose effort? Still, I'm going to try and make sure I tag all roads of 60kph or higher at least. Though it's surprisingly hard to remember them when I just look at the map. To Australian mappers: is there a free government source of speed limits?
