you should specify the maxweight for all vehicles distinctly, e.g. maxweight:hgv= maxweight:bus= +1 On Thu, Dec 31, 2015 at 8:31 AM Martin Koppenhoefer wrote: > > > sent from a phone > > > Am 30.12.2015 um 19:26 schrieb Jack Burke : > > > > What's

Re: [Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

The three types of vehicles shown on the sign in the original post are all HGVs. The differences are in the vehicle configuration - standalone, with a semitrailer and with a "proper" trailer. So it would need to be something like maxweight:hgv:notrailer=X, maxweight:hgv:semitrailer=Y,

Re: [Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

Looking at the photo in the original post, it looks like the categories are a bit more specific than "hgv" - possibly articulated/semitrailers vs. drawbar trailers, possibly based on the number of axles. What is the proper/legal defintion of the vehicle categories that the symbols represent?

The Florida Trucking Manual [1] (page 10) explains the categories thus: _The maximum allowable weight is listed in tons beside the silhouette for each of the three classes of vehicles._ _The SINGLE-UNIT TRUCK silhouette includes all straight trucks, cranes, and other single-unit special mobile

[Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

What's the right way to specify maxweight when the weight limit sign has different values for different vehicles? Just use the highest value shown? For example, see this bridge: http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/xCvKHzGbfqBG0sZDCVUV8A/photo --jack "weighing all my options"

Re: [Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

Interesting case, the bridge can seemingly resist 25 short tons, yet for smaller vehicules it takes less. Do you know if this is a legal limit or if being smaller makes the weight less spread out which can structurally damage the bridge? If the first then I'd map the highest value, if the latter

Re: [Tagging] Specifying maxweight, when different weight limits are signed

Split values are somewhat frequent in the US. Oklahoma and Oregon definitely has different weight limits posted for bridges for straight vans, single trailers, doubles (or some road train combinations like triples, turnpike doubles, Rocky Mountain doubles...). On Wed, Dec 30, 2015 at 12:58 PM,
