It does seem, however, that it would seem to make more sense to either have separate nodes for each of the possible directions, or have some other way of signifying which direction or directions the stop sign applies to. Frequently, only some of the traffic directions at an intersection are required to stop. Most often, the traffic on the side-street is required to stop, but not that on the larger street. I know of one intersection, here in Nashville, Tennessee, where traffic coming from one direction does not have to stop, but traffic coming from the other three directions does have to stop.

Maybe the highway tag is overloaded; you can't tag a node that's both traffic_signals and motorway_junction or crossing. But give_way isn't a problem unless stop is also bad. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging -- John F.
