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.
‘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’.
English has a lot of influence from both Germanic and Latin, to the point where I don’t think it’s reasonable to classify it as a strictly “Germanic” language.
There are plenty of English words that can be traced to old Norse (i.e. Norwegian Viking occupiers, raiders, and/or traders).
Ok, “fart” is where English gets “fare”, that makes sense I guess. Is that coincidentally where English gets “far”? Otherwise I’d think it’s closer to where we get “wide”. Like weit gefahren?
This is either Norwegian or Danish.
It’s true that ‘fart’ means speed in Swedish, but in this context ‘hastighet’ would be used (~‘hastiness’).

i think we figured out last time this was posted that it’s danish.
You’re just fartblind.
Hmm I’ve been to Sweden and I’ve seen many fart kontrol signs. I know because I took funny selfies in front of them

then you weren’t in sweden. we dont even signpost them.
‘Hastighet’ means velocity.
I guess this is where we get “haste”?
It’d be more accurate to say they share the same origin. Swedish and English are both part of the Germanic language family.

and “fart” is where you get “fare”, as in to travel. or rather, we both got them from german.
