If an entering way shares a node with an exiting way there is no need

If that shared node is also part of junction=roundabout, then it does
"need to pass through".
It also messes up the exit count in navigation instructions.
How? It has the same number of exits/entrances, no matter if they share
nodes. They're all still countable.

To be doubly clear, this is an example of a road entering a roundabout &

What you describe is a mini-roundabout.
No it wasn't. It was perfectly clear as I posted the
'junction=roundabout ' page. Much of the following is
incoherent to me. The rest is irrelevant to my point. DaveF
That has a different geometry as the center of that one is
traversable.

a) I don't see a node as anything you "are on" at any
time. Only segments. At most nodes are considered for
calculating the metric of making certain turns between
segments. b) Routing algorithms that don't know or deal
with roundabouts would still work perfectly well with a
circle of segments and give proper instructions. c) In
reality this is a circle of road-segments. So segments
represent reality more closely. So for the purpose of the
map as a representation of real world geometry, this is
simply a much better approximation. This is not only for
routing but also for map-rendering to scale the size of
the roundabout correctly. (There are vast differences in
possible sizes.) d) These segments have a significantly
different metric then an intersection (much slower traffic
in the roundabout then the surrounding roads). They have
an angle to the entering and exiting road that can be used
in a metric because you need to slow down to make such
hard turns, limiting your average speed in the segments
before and after the roundabout (lookahead). There may be
traffic jams or construction sites blocking part of a
roundabout but still allowing certain turns to be made.
This can not be described with a simple node. On

Hi Could anyone give me an explanation for this line
from
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:junction=roundabout
"Each road has to be connected with the roundabout in
a separate node—that is, between these nodes a segment
of the roundabout is required." I see no requirement
for a separate segment: * When a entering road
shares a node with a roundabout then the router knows
it's entered that roundabout by reading the tags on
the circular way. * Whilst on that node, the
router checks to see if there are any suitable exits.
If there are, then it leaves the roundabout. * If
not, it continues going around until it finds an
appropriate exit. Cheers DaveF
