I would guess that it could be argued that you should be able to see a sign long before you may be able to read it and act appropriately.

Interestingly I travel down a road that does have warning that its going to drop from 60 -30 with markers at 300, 200 and 100 meters.
Ah! Yes! Road markers! If only they were everywhere?

As far as I know there is no legal limit on how far away you have to be to be able to read a road sign. Then again who can see round bends.
