On the other hand, a road labeled as "use at your own risk" may well be one
that is not currently being maintained, meaning that you have increased odds of
finding it impassable due to washouts, landslides, and the like. I have seen
some one-lane tracks where any type of blockage would mean you

Don't use the access tag :-) That's about right of access, and that
sort of sign is usually either:

That might not quite work...NFS ranger stations are, for all practical
purposes, police stations and tourism information facilities. In BLM
areas, they're almost exclusively police stations. In some states and most
counties, they're purely tourism information.

indicating that police and rescue services are not available, the road is

Hi,
in that case, I am certain that noone will take liability for your actions
anyway, be there a sign or not. The sign is only there to ease the load on the
people who have to deny liability ;).
If the site has a private operator, though, ask them.

Hi,
fly is right here.
When it comes to snow cleaning, owners of the houses along a road are liable in
case of an accident if they didn't fulfill their duties. (At least in Germany -
some British court of law ruled this to be God's will if I am not mistaken).
However, I am not sure whether a s

Hi,
for me this isn't a question of access. What's the intention of "on your
own risk"? If I'm walking on a footway next to a residential and I got
hit by a passing car, it's also my own risk. I think it's a question of
liability. So in your case maybe liability=no

Hi,
I assume there might be a difference between access=yes and access=permissive
in this regard because it defines who might be liable if not you.
I do not think this information should be tagged for reasons mentioned before,

In what way is this any different to any other road? Even on a government
maintained road you accept a degree of own responsibility. What additional
risks are we talking about here?

Is there any text before that, like "guard dogs roaming free (-- access at
your own risk)" ?
Seriously though,
Don't think that this is the correct tag. "permissive" means that there is
access now, but it can be withdrawn at any time.

I think this could be tagged with amenity=parking, parking=surface,
access=private, and than if you want, invent a new subtag to explain what
type of a car park it is. Maybe parking:type=storage? I don't think the use
of this place is much different from a car park.

While there may be personnel at a ranger station that have law enforcement
authority, that will not always be the case, and in any event, law

We have ranger stations listed under "amenity=police".
Rangers are indeed a type of police, but one that often also
counts squirrels or displays rocks.
Should ranger stations get their own tag?
