Have you ever actually worked with geodata in depth? It's a wall-to-wall nightmare.

Never for production at scale admittedly, only for research and on fixed line connections, mostly public transport related. Some datasets are better than others.

Internet connected options here in Australia generally have good speed limit data but there are generally very few variable speed limits that allow you to travel faster than usual.

Transition is never perfect but surely regulation would account for that?

I genuinely don’t know but to me it’s an interesting problem.
