you seem to be just emphasising my point, it wont be obvious to them at all what the speed limit is. It may be to you as you seem to read the Polish highway code each evening and drive here regularly but it's not to a stranger. Why they can't have an explicit speed limit sign to remind you at least every few km's is beyond me, would probably help road safety too. Even the signs to signal a town or motorway are not actual speed limit signs, they're pictures - great, more guessing, what a help!
What's not obvious about it? Just remember the golden rule - if there's no speed limit signed after a junction (except in cities - so you must pass a 'city' sign at some point) - the national limit applies. It's straightforward and easy to work out - did you see a speed limit sign after the junction? No? Then the national limit applies.
As for the signs signalling towns - I'd say that passing a sign of a town is much more straightforward than the German example (which is just the name of the place on a yellow sign). There's also no doubt as to where the built-up area ends - a speed limit sign isn't so clear.
