yes, we could remove the images altogether or complement them with different ones from different regions in order to put them into context. Lets discuss this in tagging. Btw.: there was also a voting about the highway system (physical vs. grid hierarchy): https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Highway_key_voting_importance and this is still reflected in the definition: "The *highway tag* is the main tag used for identifying any kind of road, street or path. The highway type helps indicate the importance of the highway within the road network as a whole." cheers, Martin
