Yes, in this particular case it's a bit contrived, but what if we're talking about a major highway? You don't want to tag bridges where there are no bridges, that's just going to confuse people when their car tells them to "continue over the bridge". And you don't want to show a gap between the ditch and the road where one does not exist, because someone might be tempted to try to walk there, and maybe they want to find a different route rather than walking over a major highway.
