speedLimit is the one type that takes this, and a sign is the whole of what it draws — there
is no line along the stretch, because a line would mark every stretch that carries a limit
without ever saying what the limit is. SectionDisplayConfig.visible switches the signs
themselves.
The sign follows the road rather than the reader. Where the route also carries country
sections, each sign takes the face, the unit and the numeral colour of the country its stretch
runs through: the white disc most of Europe posts on, the yellow one Sweden, Finland and Iceland
use, the SPEED LIMIT plaque of the United States, and Japan's blue numerals. A country with no
entry posts the white disc in km/h.
Where mph is posted the number is converted and rounded to the step signs come in. Without
country sections the display units decide the face and the unit, and an explicit unit
overrides both.
Signs scale with the zoom, as the ferry and toll-road icons do; minzoom decides how early
they appear at all.
The sign a section type posts its own value on.
