When I read this, some small bell rang at the backside of my brain. If
think I remember that a few years ago I read somewhere in the wiki, that
lanes=-1 means a very narrow road. I might be completely mistaken and I'm
pretty sure that this was already removed from the wiki, but that might be
the origin of it. Of course it doesn't make any sense to use lanes=-1 for
that; instead simply use width.

Best regards,
Martin
