Ah. So I think the issue here is whether a lane can be:<br>
<br>
1) explicitly traced out as a "way" (i.e. series of nodes), or<br>
2) assumed to follow the same path as the "parent" way<br>
<br>
If a lane is related to its adjacent lanes and "parent" way through<br>
the use of a relation, I think 1) is necessary. Right? Because the<br>
members of <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/lane_and_lane_group" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/lane_and_lane_group</a>,<br>
for example, are themselves ways (i.e. series of nodes)?<br>
