      That kind of speed is called hastighet in Swedish..

        This is either Norwegian or Danish.

        It's true that 'fart' means speed in Swedish, but in this context 'hastighet' would be used (~'hastiness').

        Probably Denmark then. European route E47 goes from Germany to Sweden, E55 from Greece to Sweden. In Denmark they share the same physical road for a while.

              What is that 2 - 12 kmh sign? A speed limit for a pedestrian road?

                Always practice fartkontrol, when you go to the slutstation.

                  I guess you need to expect your farts being controlled over the next 2-12 km.

                    It's not km/h, just km. So maybe from km 2 to km 12 on this road, they are "controlling the farts".

                      'Fart' does refer to speed occasionally, but the key here is that it's always called 'Hastighetskontroll' in Swedish. Note the double 'L' in 'kontroll' and the compounding of 'hastighet' and 'kontroll'.

                        I guess this is where we get “haste”?

                              It's not the fart that kills, but the smell.

                                          "fart" is colloquial swedish for speed, but it's not used on signs like that. as mentioned previously the correct word is "hastighetskontroll", but we don't actually have signs like that for permanent speed cameras. those signs are blue, and just depict a camera.

                                          when "fart" appears on signs, the actual meaning is akin to "travel" or "fare", like german "fahr-" words. so we have "sjöfart" (seafaring), "rymdfart" (space travel), "fartvind" (wind rushing by when moving quickly), "uppfart" (driveway) and, importantly for signs, "utfart" and "infart" (exit and entry for vehicles).

                                          my favorite of this is a sign nearby on a narrow road that warns about multiple exits with no sight lines.
