There is no indication of a maximum speed for that lane, beyond at 130 you may come up behind a truck very quickly, there is no indication that the standard keep to the right unless overtaking doesn't apply. [...]
The 60 km/h are not indicated on the road sign, but in the 'Code de la
route' (highway code):
https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichCodeArticle.do?idArticle=LEGIARTI000006842322&cidTexte=LEGITEXT000006074228
The second section is translated into English as follows: 'For the
purposes of this article, the term slow vehicles refers to vehicles
that cannot travel at a speed exceeding 60 km/h on the road section in
question.'
But because our good practice guidelines recommend to not map local
legislation, this doesn't seem to matter, and smv:lanes=||designated
should be fine. (I wouldn't even tag smv:lanes=no|yes|designated
because of the same guideline.)
