the MUTCD, FDOT and IMSA classify this Yellow Background w Black Lettering Diamond shaped type of SIGN as “Advisory”, aka: a Warning to Traffic Conditions the motorist is Approaching, and …

… the Fact that there is a diagram of a Roundabout above the [advised] speed limit provides the reason for this posted sign.

this is NOT an opinion:

Yes, the yellow sign is "warning" that you are approaching a RB. The black on white rectangular speed limit sign is just that---an official and legal speed limit, which technically begins at the sign. And that is not "an opinion", that is the law. And I am not certified in "IMSA Traffic and Signage". Would you have felt better if they didn't put the two signs on the same pole but different ones?
