Not only in a corner. In Germany the A3, going down the Elzer Berg (near
Limburg an der Lahn in the eastward direction) has a speedlimit of 40 km/h on
the right lane and 100 km/h (or 120? haven't been there in two years) on the
left two lanes.
Speedlimit is imposed because of the steep gradient down and is meant to limit
the risk of runaway HGV's on the right lane.

So the correct wording is: "there can only be one maxspeed per lane per
direction on a road".
