The routers that I use for testing seem to be aware of crossings without crossing nodes, so I too often forget to tag them. Having the STOP signs tagged as I did works, since 'direction=forward' means 'when approaching this node on the forward direction of any connecting way', but your method is more robust against inadvertently reversing one way and not the other. > > This recent wiki change by Emvee > <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Emvee> is in my view not > helpful, or even misleading, as it does discourage a wide-spread tagging > practice (if we like this or not is a different question, but it's > established tagging, and the wiki is supposed to describe the establsihed > methods of tagging) > I'm posting from a smartphone, so I'm not in a good position to review the change log.
