They use planning guidelines with different classes, which are not directly visible to the user of a road. A good starting point for the German situation is maybe here: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richtlinien_für_integrierte_Netzgestaltung (I believe the actual guideline is not available for free), and I guess other countries will likely have similar standards that go beyond the system that is visible from signs on the road. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
