I've been reviewing the mapping of some local roads, and would be
grateful for advice as to whether this edit is correct:

   https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/97112651#map=18/52.54693/-1.89053

In it, I changed a cul-de-sac with a loop of road at the end into a
straight line with the end node tagged as a turning circle - please
compare with ESRI or a similar aerial photo.

My reasoning is that it is not possible to drive a car up the road and
return, without at some point engaging reverse.

If there is consensus that my change is correct, I will do the same
for other cases in the vicinity.
