In a project at work I designed two levels.  One was the physical and
it consisted of polygons and a polygon could be connected to another
and that meant that it was physically traversable by a car.  In OSM
that would be segments that just are connected to other segments.
Then I had a more abstract data layer which encoded how cars were
allowed to drive and things like speed.
