The <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#F19">rectangular
F19</a> is disputably classified as "information" because it in
fact also prohibits driving in the other way and hence to U-turn.<br>
The <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#C33">no-U-turn
sign C33</a> might be thought of as one-way, but it is not (it
doesn't forbid other cars going contra-way).<br>
There is no round one-way sign that I know of. But, of course, a <a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1">follow
the direction </a><a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1">ahead
</a><a
href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1">D1</a>
placed withing a street (not at a crossing) amounts to a no-U-turn
with the same remarks as for F19.<br>
<br>
Once again, such a specialists' controverted discussion makes one
thing certain: those fuzzy road signals must certainly never be
used for routing (restrictions). oneway=yes is much more obvious
and foolproof. And it allows software to represent corresponding
signals without any need to tag them if someone likes to turn that
option on (with the risk of having two instead of one). Remember
the noexit=yes story !!!<br>

Only the rectangular blue sign means one way traffic... The
round blue one
tells you which way to drive at a junction which is subtly
different. What
is the round red one you have in mind?<br>

</span>At least the oneway sign looks different
from country to country. Or
do<br>
you expect that a French oneway sign looks like
the German one? (The<br>
German one contains the word "Einbahnstraße", the
German
translation of<br>
oneway) <a moz-do-not-send="true"

rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Zeichen_220-20.svg</a><br>
<br>
And even traffic signs without text often look
different because<br>
different countries use different fonts.<br>
<br>
That's why I suggest to use the country prefixes
followed by a number
or<br>
the name depending if the country numbers its
traffic signs (like<br>
Germany) or not (like Austria).<br>
