[Talk-br] highway=living_street or residental in Brazilian cities?

[Andreas Schmidt]

Hello.
(sorry for mixing up local time zones)

thanks for all answers.

Allright, I understand that this topic is different in Brazil.
There are more living_streets than in Germay.

Now I've an example:

On the bottom right area of this screenshot, there is Avenida Maria
Moreira Lisboa (Itanhém).
When copying the scale from Bing's aerial image, I think the street is
wider than 6 metres.
Do you agree?

regards,
Andreas
