Hi Nate,

Thank you for the heads up, we will keep this in mind while we add turn
restrictions. We are currently focussing on adding the following turn
restrictions [1]. Also we have documented this instance in our guide to map
turn restrictions [2]. It will be great to have your feedback and
suggestions on our workflow.

Cheers,
