the way most of us do it also, and that's the way the wiki is
written.<br>
I'm not clear on what you do differently in Africa, Is there a
document which describes the methodology? If not, perhaps a
quick informal summary of the differences here would be helpful.<br>

non-paved road with so many potholes or turning into a

Even the bollards here get driven over, a bollard made of
just a wooden stem won't stop a truck driver from running
over it, if their is no signage. Again local culture, local
perception. <br>
If there are trees growing next to a road, most of the
drivers go there with a chainsaw, we cut it. Should I use
an access key to indicate that the road might be to narrow
for a truck ?<br>

<p><font face="Verdana">That is why in Africa we consider access
keys only to be used for legal access restrictions, not
physical. For that we use other keys like smoothness,
intermittent, seasonal etc.... . That is why we have in the
largest part of the world a completely different approach of
highway tagging and that is why I would prefer to see it
changed or at least forked (not just a "buried" continental
variant), because what we have now as the global OSM
standard is not usable, is not applicable in the rest, which
is "the most" part of the world.</font><br>

<pre>this is easy, but what about motorcycle=no? Could depend on the jurisdiction/situation
