One thing that I'd definitely do (and you may be doing already) would be
to record details from the actual sign in a note tag. That's not going

Belated thanks for the various comments, I've been away.
Of the various views, I tend to like highway=service +

Regulations' which lays down the maximum sizes for normal road usage. If

There are lots of roads where I map which have Unfit for motors signs
(blue/white advisory) but are normal maintained roads in limited but
