    In the Netherlands (where this is depicted) it’s typically a white sign with black letters and a red line around it for prohibited, or blue with white text for required

    So a white sign with black numbers 80 and a red line around it means prohibited to drive faster than 80, s similar sign with a biker means forbidden for bikes there. If it’s a blue sign with a bike, it means bikes are required ro go here.

    A line through it actually means “end of this particular prohibition”

      …does a blue sign with a white 80 mean you must travel at least that quickly?..we have minimum speeds posted stateside, although it’s not common…

        I can only talk about the Netherlands: Round white sign with a red band, black letters: maximum speed Square blue sign with white letters, advisory speed (advisory speed < maximum speed - 20 )

        There is no minimum speed (round blue sign white letters): this is for the simple reason you could technically be ticketed in the case of a traffic jam, yield sign or traffic light

        Yeah, as far as I learned, that would be the minimum speed you have to drive in this segment of the road.

        Usually, as crossed out sign means it got annulled but there are also some signs, like the sign prohibiting U-turns that have a line through them. But generally the coloring is the major indicator.
