<div>Hi everyone!<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I noticed that the proposal for a give_way type relationship
[1] has been in draft for nine solid years. It seems a great
solution to the current limitations of highway=give_way and
highway=stop, also because it reuses a tagging scheme that is
widely accepted both by mappers and by consumers for turn
restrictions. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suggest that discussion on this proposal be revived. It
should undergo the regular voting process and finally become an
approved relation type. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It may also be that it became a de facto standard in the
meanwhile. Does somebody know of a router that uses this
relation, possibly to provide navigation indications?</div>

<blockquote type="cite">From wikipedia: In road transport, a YIELD
(Canada, Ireland, and the United States) or GIVE WAY (Hong Kong
and most Commonwealth countries) traffic sign indicates that a
vehicle driver must prepare to stop if necessary to let a driver
on another approach proceed (but has no need to stop if his way is
clear). A driver who stops has yielded or given his right of way
to another.

Canada etc... are not the only countries in the world and <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dgive_way"
title="Tag:highway=give way"><span class="searchmatch">highway</span>=<span
class="searchmatch">give</span> <span class="searchmatch">way</span></a>
mentions an international standard sign. URLs (links) to more
information would be very much welcome <br>
A driver who stops in Belgium has <b>NOT</b> yielded or given his
right of way to another.
<br>
This rule might have changed for compatibility with other European
regulations.<br>
Even more that wrong speed limits, this misinformation can lead to
accidents.<br>
It should be changed in the wiki.<br>
<br>
Cheers, <br>
