within states. In Victoria (Australia), guessing maxspeed=50 for
highway=residential will be right 95% of the time. It's certainly less
effort to build and implement a table of defaults than to tag every
single way, but the question is: whose effort?

Still, I'm going to try and make sure I tag all roads of 60kph or
higher at least. Though it's surprisingly hard to remember them when I
just look at the map.

To Australian mappers: is there a free government source of speed limits?
