I wouldn't do that, but I'd rather make it the opposite way (state that
destination does require contact). I'm not sure about the term "residents".
Are these signs only found in areas which are "purely residential" (i.e.
there are no offices if not inside residences and run by the resident, no
shops, haircutters, agencies, ...)? Otherwise I'd include something
referring to businesses. We should check if the currently described
definition in the wiki for "destination" is correctly describing the
situation for some place on Earth (some jurisdiction). If yes we have to
leave it as it is IMHO, and we'd have to retag a lot of stuff in Germany.
If not we could change the definition.

I'd use "destination" (with the changed definition). We do need maybe
another value anyway for Austria, from what I read in WP there is a
distinction between "Anrainer frei" (who has his residence there) and
"Anrainerverkehr frei" (adds the people that want to come into contact with
residents).
