Is there any distinction for direction of the sign?

It's understood that the sign faces traffic approaching an intersection.
If a node with highway=stop is on a way but nowhere near an intersection,

I mostly agree with the added text, with the following criticism:
I agree this should be highway=service, service=escape_lane.
Also note, if I'm thinking of the right thing, in the US this is usually
called a runaway truck ramp. This phrase should appear in the feature
docuentation somewhere.

Excuse me if I don't understand the situation entirely, but I think the
problem is the actual access restriction or enforcement of it is different
from a literal reading of the signs. This must be the case if the signs
don't give adequate information to completely describe the restriction. In

As others have said, I usually tag the entire parcel, as long as it's not
used for farming. I'd somewhat like a way to tag low-density rural
residential land-use, but as it is I think the absence of a thick network
of residential streets is a decent clue that one isn't looking at a
built-up area.
I thought we used natural=* for this kind of thing.
For the different broad classes of vegetation discussed so far in this
thread, there's natural=grass/scrub/wood. Of course there's
natural=water. Other landcover types are uncommon in central Ohio so I'm
not familiar with their tagging, but I
Here's how I'd address the concerns in this thread:
tracks=*: number of tracks represented by the way having the tag, as per
wiki
total_tracks=*: number of tracks in the right-of-way of the rail line,
regardless of how many parallel ways exist. This sounds more like a tag
appropriate for a rail

An automated approach would involve merging all close tracks and

If you're using member roles to distinguish the oneway halves of a route,
practice in the US is to use the roles east and west or north and
south as appropriate (consistent with signage if possible). (I
