Imagine ordering a taxi and arriving in a 4-seater car when you have<br>
a family of 8, it's the same problem, isn't it?<br>
When I order a taxi, they ask me the number of people.<br>
the guy won't come with a fiat 500 if I say 8<br>
<br>
I don't imagine we're going to create several objects to describe<br>
that a taxi waiting area has motorcycles, "normal" cars, vehicles<br>
with a lot of passenger seats and vehicles with a heavy<br>
luggage capacity.<br>
on the ground : one traffic sign for for all variants.<br>
<br>
