Answering in reverse!

I thought I remembered something about "quiet zones" for traffic, so did
some searching & found:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Tag:railway%3Dlevel_crossing#Quiet_zones,
but which has apparently never been used.

Also found https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:designation#Quiet_lanes

The same idea could possibly be used as designation=quiet_zone, possibly
with quiet_zone=hgv?

Can anyone suggest the most appropriate way to take ways where the road is

& maybe the same concept as designation=low_gears?

That one could even come in under
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:hazard#Traffic_hazards as
hazard=low_gear_required?

Thanks
