[talk-au] "Bad" directions on Outback roads

[Dian Ågesson]

Hey Brendan, Graeme

If we wanted to alleviate the explicitly conditional problem, you could 
combine the following:

vehicle:conditional=discouraged @ (Dec-Apr "Impassable during wet 
season")

vehicle:conditional=no @ (Dec-Apr and wet)

By leaving it discouraged without further info gives wiggle room for 
legal access when the road is passable.
