OK.

Indeed, speed limit is vehicle dependent :-p. On a lot of tracks, good  
4WD cars can drive fast when local overloaded and aged vehicle can't...

Good idea.

I was thinking about an old HDM version where one can indicate how to  
carry goods. And backpack carrying was an option. So, wheelbarrow was  
a intermediate case between cases defined in that version.

Interpretation on smoothness or on closing period?

It was already proposed in earlier versions of HDM. And I think it is  
widely used in Haiti (but not sure about tags).
