traffic_sign is a tag used to tag actual traffic signs
at their position, it doesn't look right together with
a linear barrier like a guard rail which very likely
isn't a traffic sign itself along all its way

Did I write it must be a part of a way? I think both (node or way) work, but it should definitely be on the way: as a node on the actual position of the traffic sign it's maybe nice as a landmark but completely useless for routing software.

Also the traffic_sign tag indicates (to other mappers...) that the maxwidth value isn't just estimated. I definitely see the traffic sign: https://goo.gl/maps/8KUw7

According to <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:traffic_sign> the tag traffic_sign can actually be used on a way: "The tag is not meant to mark the actual position of the sign in this case, but the affected way or area instead."
