It appears that people have been using "car" as a key for this purpose.  Should 
I use that, and add an appropriate entry below motorcar=*?

IMHO motorcar should be defined as automobile/car, and not be used as
a generic term including busses, hgv, goods and other. If we had car
and motorcar parallelly this would create a lot of confusion.

Then what would a proper classification look like?

According to tagstat:
Tag             Usage
vehicle         22618
motor_vehicle   42743
motorcar       209720
car              1475
bus             42842
hgv             45609
goods           16948

To properly represent German law (sign 251 "cars and other multiple
tracked vehicles not allowed") we need a tag for all two-tracked
vehicles (currently "motorcar"), plus we need tag specifically for
just cars.

Maybe the alternative is to instead tag that its only suitable for
single-tracked vehicles (ie. access=no motorbike=yes) rather than trying
to figure out what isnt allowed?  From how I read the discussion that
seems to be the problem?


But don't forget bicycle=yes, foot=yes, horse=yes, skating=yes, dog=yes, ...
