of course these would all be clearly traffic signs, but signs like the one
on the picture around here never show speed limits or access restrictions,
they only show information (e.g. they might indicate that a road, bridge,
exit etc. is closed, but as an pre-announcement, not as the actual access
restriction which you will find at the spot where it applies), typically
they show the current travel times to common points, or warn about
accidents ahead, or say something general like "fasten your seatbelts", "we
wish you a good drive" etc.

Sometimes they are combined with variable speed limits.
