Hi  Gerhardus
Personally I would not worry too much about tagging the actual sign. Reading the wiki I believe it means tag the sign if you want to, in my experience they are rarely tagged.

The most important thing is to tag the way (road) with the limit.

Hi
I noted down some speed limits and locations of signs while visiting Zimbabwe. I am keen to tag it but wanted to clarify something.


http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Speed_limits


After having read the above it seems to me I should:
Mark speed limits on the road
and mark speed sign locations, however in my mind a speed sign has a direction and nothing is mentioned of direction in the wiki page regarding direction. Is it possible to incorporate direction in the tag?


Regards
