Hello, we monitor the groundspeed on the ND and the speed limitations in our company are:
5kt..... Taxiing into the gate.
10kt..... Turns >60 degrees or entering the gate
20kt..... When exiting runway
30kt..... On straight line.
45kt..... High speed taxiway in dry conditions using rudder pedals. Tiller should not be used above 30kt groundspeed.

We always rely on the groundspeed indication on the ND. Except after landing when entering the gate as the speed is not very accurate cause of the IRS Drift. Then I look outside for better assessement. Some guys uses the GPS speed displayed in the MCDU page. I do not do it tho. I slow down if required by marshaller or Guidance System.
