They're not necessarily service roads --- they don't have
to lead to<br>
any premises at all; they're simply minor roads, usually
unsealed.<br>

Some (but very few) "BOAT"s near me say "service road" to you when
you look at them; most just say "track" or even "bridleway". The
only "unclassified" ones I can find are as a result of some
newbie's* mapping and probably could benefit from a resurvey to see
if they're best described as service roads or something else. I
certainly wouldn't use highway=road if I'd been and had a look, as
that implies that no survey has taken place.<br>
<br>
Essentially - map the physical and legal attributes separately; but
map both as accurately as you can.<br>

* me, back in 2009. The overpass query for info was:<br>
<br>
<osm-script output="json" timeout="25"><br>
<!-- gather results --><br>
<query type="way"><br>
<has-kv k="highway" v="unclassified"/><br>
<has-kv k="designation" v="byway_open_to_all_traffic"/><br>
<bbox-query {{bbox}}/><br>
</query><br>
<!-- print results --><br>
<print mode="body"/><br>
<recurse type="down"/><br>
<print mode="skeleton" order="quadtile"/><br>
</osm-script><br>
