[Tagging] Motorroad does not apply to all lanes

*I looked carefully at the situation of that road bridge in Bremen, and to
me it looks clear that the stretch on the bridge cannot legally be a
motorroad. When you enter from the west on the on-ramp I bet you do not
find any sign telling you that you are entering a motorraod. The motorroad
starts again at the next exit, immediately after the bridge where non-motor
vehicle have to exit*. It is only for practical reasons that
non-motor-vehicles will stay on the right hand lane only. So the correct
mapping is that yo remove put motorroad=no on the short stretch on the
bridge.
This also has the advantage that the average routing algorithm will route
your horse-drawn calach correctly over the bridge.
