Well just for fun I fixed one speed limit bug. However I am not comfortable fixing most of the speed limit bugs in the area I was looking at (Wichita, KS) because they are just points and do not describe for how long the reported speed limit is valid. "The speed limit is 50 at this location" isn't very useful. Really, I need locations of speed limit CHANGES because that is where the way needs to be split in OSM and the pieces tagged appropriately. I guess if enough people report speed limit bugs at different points along a given road you could narrow things down pretty good but that probably won't happen here in Kansas :)
Now on things like motorways (like the one that I fixed) it is a little more doable since motorways tend to stay the same speed for long distances. Speed limits seem to be the most reported bug. It might be interesting to see what happens when more things start being reported.
