However, the other part was that even if all of those internal planning rules are available, the decisions made may not be entirely predictable (especially if we don't have access to traffic statistics) and the only objectively verifiable data we have is the signage. If your country's government indicates with signs that a road as a primary route then that is what it is. If your country doesn't have official road classifications then you'll have to use your judgement. -- Paul
