I don't think that's particularly harmful. I'm not against extending the criteria to published laws, particularly when those laws are documented in an official source.

Seems like tagging “noise” to me. I’d expect a router to use the roundabout itself because exiting, making a U turn and then re-entering the roundabout will be longer and thus slower. Since the no U turn relations are there to make routing work and a reasonable router won’t need them, I’d say they are “noise”. If I were to go in to fix something on that intersection, I’d probably remove the no U turn restriction(s). But I don’t think I’d go out of my way to find them. Cheers!

In my local neighbourhood, I noticed that he added no_u_turn restrictions to all the nodes where a road into in/out of a roundabout is splitting (because of physical separation). Which basically amounts to 4 no_u_turn restrictions for every single roundabout. e.g. here: <https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/57747093> https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/57747093 <https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/57674063> https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/57674063 There is no actual no_u_turn sign in any of these locations, it’s just (mostly) physically a bad idea to attempt a u-turn here. Just a few weeks ago I discussed exactly this in #osm and the conclusion was that it was neither necessary nor desirable to do this. I made a comment about that to the first of the two changesets linked above, but haven’t gotten a reply. So, what is the general opinion about this here? Should these turn restrictions be created or not?
