[Imports] "fleet manager" speed limit import proposal (Global)

[Simon Poole]

Not trying to get involved but this would obviously, if you want to go
the gamification route, be something that would far better suited to a
Kort challenge. Kort assume that the players are on the ground and can
actually check.

And as I've remarked to Richard already, given the state of the geometry
of some parts of the US road network doing anything automatic there
would be -very- dangerous.
