Someone just added this, it's a good idea on principal, but is this
the best way to tag it?

The page for the overtaking tag appears to have been in existence since
August 2009. What's new is that it has been linked from the Mapping
Features page, which maybe should have happened earlier?
I changed the title of this post as the overtaking tag doesn't cover
overtaking lanes as such, just general prohibitions.
This came into the limelight in NL following a discussion about
single-carriageway (main) roads with a double white line (i.e. "do not
cross", effectively "no overtaking") and whether they should be modelled
as a dual carriageway as you are supposed to drive *as if* there is a
wall down the middle of the road. This tag was suggested as an
alternative approach.
