Meet one and hopefully you are good at reversing.</div><div><br></div><div>One thing that was not mentioned on the international list was there is also Unsuitable for Motor Vehicles.</div><div><br></div><div>An example here</div><div><a href="https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/7DD5trbqVEil3AKJCJeJDg">https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/7DD5trbqVEil3AKJCJeJDg</a></div><div><br></div><div>In practical terms the question is what does this mean. </div><div>Well its not a good idea for a router to use these roads blindly, so although this example I have driven through it many times. </div><div>The practical problems are that it is a narrow single track road, no space to turn and after a heavy rain it likely to be under deep water which can flood and destroy the engine of a modern car.</div><div>Would I drive through there tomorrow, well yes. I know it has been dry for the last week. </div><div><br></div><div>Another here <a href="https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/y3zTGNAT7MgGtxoaGXPUvQ">https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/y3zTGNAT7MgGtxoaGXPUvQ</a></div><div>Well its officially an unclassified road, not a green lane or county road, many practical roads have this category.</div><div><br></div><div>It deteriorates into a very muddy, deeply rutted track. I have walked it, but no way would I attempt to drive the full length of it. Premises need to to approched from the right end.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Discouraged does seem to be a reasonable tag, effectivly =destination but a hgv driver in particular does need to know which end to approch from.</div><div><br></div><div>Phil (trigpoint)</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>On Mon, 2020-05-25 at 01:31 +0200, Mateusz Konieczny via Talk-GB wrote:</div><blockquote type="cite" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex; border-left:2px #729fcf solid;padding-left:1ex">
