[OSM-talk] How to tag small city alley ?

[Greg Troxel]

  Isn't that highway=pedestrian exactly?  As for cars I think it might
  be a physical impossibility rather than permitted / not permitted.
  (But for routing purposes it's just the same.)

I suppose it is, except that really it's highway=motorcycle.

My real point was that the whole 'highway' concept has cars built into
it very deeply, and this is part of the tradeoff between a
CS-nerd-pleasing decomposition of the world and convenience for real
humans for tagging.
