The only problem is that, in this case, it's not a normal-looking
"sliproad/ramp", but a surface street that would normally be tagged
highway=residential or unclassified. Here are a few examples:

I've been tagging them as trunk_link, but someone else disagrees,
saying *_link is only for normal-looking ramps.
