IMHO track does imply a width usable by 4-wheel-vehicles (even if legislation in some parts of the world might not allow use by car). In Germany we are using these for forestal and agricultural ways that are indeed used by vehicles. I agree with valent that a car (or maybe better a tractor) would be better icons than a pedestrian. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
