"hazard:bicycle" is the other way round. If there is a key/value e.g.
"hazard=narrow" then you can easily use "cycleway:hazard=narrow" to tag the
fact that the hazard tag is specificly warns for a narrow cycle-lane.

Hi,
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features lists a certain portion of
approved tags.
- Why only a part of all approved tags are mentioned here?

Tagging mailing list
I think that adding a hazard=xyz tag is a good suggestion. A bike-route
renderer could then allow someone considering a ride to decide which hazards
they were willing to accept, and which to avoid, and adjust the suggested route
accordingly.

Sorry for this little off-topic remark.
In my remark "addr" is the main tag or main key. "state" is the sub tag or
sub key. The symbol ":" indicates that "state" is telling something about
"addr".
I was wandering why this way of defining some objects in more detail is not
a more common method a

It does look like, even if the bicycle itself fit entirely within the bike
lane, the left side of the rider's body would be over the line into the driving
lane. I remember once seeing a photograph of a bike lane in Holland that was
even worse; the lane narrowed to less than a foot wide, along t

It's a sidewalk, and it's most likely not safer because of the
upcoming intersection, which appears to have a right turn (across the
sidewalk) to access the toll road
