How are these ways tagged currently - highway=path? footway?
pedestrian? What is the default bicycle access if no tag is present?

This gets tricky. To give an obvious example, if vast majority of
drivers exceeds a posted speed limit and a driver would never get
pulled over for going anything less than 15 km/h above posted speed
limit, what if anything should we tag for maxspeed=*?
