Or ignore the legal status entirely and map on the basis of common practice.
Why was "legal status" chosen as the most important attribute to map? Surely
what matters most is whether or not you should use a certain path,
regardless of what the "legal status" is.

(Hopefully I'll find some example where it's "illegal" to walk/ride
somewhere, but everyone does it.)
