[Tagging] What is a VTC car in OSM ?

[Warin]

OK, so this is an access restriction - e.g.
access=private
private=VTC (or some other term that is applicable around the world, say 
private_hire_vehicle?)

If pedestrians are still allowed to use it then
motor_vehicle=private
private=VTC (or some other term that is applicable around the world, say 
private_hire_vehicle?)

and so on for other access restrictions.
