Putting information about the legal default into OSM is not the problem. It’s just that nobody has developed a schema for it yet. And to repeat myself for the Xth time, I fully agree that it is a good idea to work out such a schema. Interpreting the law and putting the result of that interpre

It looks like they removed the details on the different types and structures, in order to move that information onto a separate page. This separate page looks to be currently undeveloped though.

Hi, I would like to suggest that we allow (and document) an additional member here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:restriction#Members The role would be "traffic_sign" and it would be a single node that marks the physical location (so not a node on a highway, but beside it at

No. And that’s exactly my point. There are restrictions being added for which I don’t see any basis except “it’s physically a bad idea”. There is no explicit no u-turn sign, and you can see the road markings in bing imagery here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=21/-27.21439/153.02286
