At least the oneway sign looks different from country to country. Or do 
you expect that a French oneway sign looks like the German one? (The 
German one contains the word "Einbahnstraße", the German translation of 
oneway) https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Zeichen_220-20.svg

And even traffic signs without text often look different because 
different countries use different fonts.

That's why I suggest to use the country prefixes followed by a number or 
the name depending if the country numbers its traffic signs (like 
Germany) or not (like Austria).

Best regards

Michael
