Hi
In the UK, Amazon Logistics are adding useful data from their GPS'd
delivery vehicles. Mainly highway=service as the last part of their
journey to a destination.
However, one of their contributors removed service=driveway from a
highway=service road. In the changeset comments they said it was because
it served multiple residential properties.

From memory, it wasn't signed as private, but it appears to be
unadopted by the local authority (There are no raised kerbed pavements,
drainage or lighting). I'm assuming it's shared ownership.
For indicative purposes only. (The image is ten years old):

Personally I see no problem tagging this as a driveway even if it's shared.
Thoughts?
