[OSM-newbies] Road Maximum speed in UK units

[Mike Harris]

I believe that the convention is that kph is the default - any other units
need to be explicit - but either will do. Thus: '48' means 48 kph (i.e.
about 30 mph) but '30mph' means what it says.
 
I am sure others will flame me if I've got this wrong!

I am about to start adding some speed limits in my area.

 

Is it better for users of the data to record in mph or convert to km/h?

 

Regards,
