I think a warning sign is legally required in Nederland. I don't think it's
very useful to register the absence or presence of mandatory warning signs
in OSM. If it is not there, report it to whoever is supposed to maintain or
enforce it. If you want to register incidents to make a stand, an
ushahidi-type of register is better I think.

For the cams themselves I see a use case, but the presence or absence of a
sign does not seem relevant to me.

The overall camera situation is very dynamic, so I do see a problem with
coverage, quality, maintenance and actuality.

Best, Peter Elderson
