<p>In many countries in Europe, the "Welcome to XXX" sign as you enter a town/village has the effect of delineating the "built-up area" for traffic purposes and introduces a specific speed limit, without any numbers being mentioned. In the countries I know in Northern Europe it means "maxspeed=50 kmh" until you leave the town/village (unless otherwise indicated of course). And that is independent of the type of road by the way. On a motorway you will not pass one of these official signs, so you carry on at 130 or whatever. The sign would be on the exit ramps.</p>
<p>The built-up area for traffic law purposes is therefore often non-contiguous, made up of lots of polygons. You just have to know if you are in or out of a built-up area, because it makes a difference to many things about traffic laws (not just maxspeed).</p>

<div>Values of legal type can be thinking in specific territory area and resolve "in my opinion" lot of case and subject in relation to access, maxspeed, and legal dimension. the last term is "the case" of lot of problem of tagging because it can't be appreciated just with maxspeed and access definition.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>All cases will be deliberate. Speak with law school faculty or a lawyer can help us to see all cases.</div>

<div dir="auto">By the way, we should de-correlate the legal status of an highway from the highway tag : with the key highway:legal_type, values : business_area or residential_area or an other local legal classification. A highway=tertiary could also be highway:legal_type=residential_area</div>
