+1, there is also service=alley which some mappers use also in Europe, for
narrow alleys in medieval towns (usually you can't drive there with a car,
or hardly, but in Italy there is normally no restriction and you could
enter with a small car and many do so, and even more enter with
motorbikes). But still I agree, you won't use this for routing in the
middle of a route, it would only make sense to take these at the start or
end.

cheers,
Martin
