If there are types of roads in Australia that you feel the existing tags
don't adequately describe, feel free to start using a new one -- you can
use Any Tags You Like. Bear in mind that the highway tags aren't meant
to be a sliding scale of importance, or follow a strict hierarchy. You
just have to describe a particular type of road as best you can, without
necessarily needing a reference to any other type of road.
