Hello,<br>
<br>
I am wondering, if there is a default for motorcar defined for highway=track<br>
if motorcar=yes/no is not specified explicitly.<br>
<br>
In Germany (Switzerland and Austria as well?) there are probably a very low<br>
fraction of tracks on which motorcars are allowed.<br>
<br>
This seems to be different in other countries, gosmore at least routes cars<br>
over tracks. I am wondering if the default can be per country....or how much<br>
work it is to give all tracks a motorcar tag.<br>
<br>
Can anybody find out easily how many tracks there are in Germany without an<br>
motorcar tag?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Rainer<br>
