-1. I agree for the multipolygon but I wouldn't put place=island,
because IMHO that would mean that there is one island where in this
example in the real world there are actually two. I would simply put

I don't know where you get this impression from (especially that

HGV = Heavy Goods Vehicle. It seems to be broadly identical (give or
take a couple of tons/tonnes) with a US "truck"
so hgv=destination (or hgv=no) would seem to be correct
Feel free to add a note on the wiki that hgv is en-gb for "truck"
Or feel free to use truck=destination (or truck=no), and

I agree that it makes more sense to have a separate tag for the weight limit.
I would also not be surprised to find certain roads forbidden to trucks over a
certain length, or forbidding trucks with tandem trailers, because the road in
question doesn't have room for a vehicle that size to turn
