If I was towing a caravan, I wouldnt set my navigation device to think Im in a car or a motorbike, Id most probably use hgv. You could say the same that just because motorbike=yes it there, that wouldnt also include side-cars and 3-wheeled trikes, those vehicles should be setting up their navigation as if they were a car. > The logic described in the Wiki for the access tags specifically allows > for the general=no, specific=yes combination, so I'd prefer to find a > tag that specifically describes cars. Why do we have a tag for every > kind of large or small vehicle, but not one for a regular car? So, is the parking youre tagging, exclusively for cars?

Not being able to distinguish cars from other vehicles is a little different to tagging no big-things allowed. I agree there needs to be clarification of the car/bus/motorbike tags, but the general idea of access=yes bus/hgv=no I think fits your situation appropriately. Maybe even a motorbike=no if the carpark really is exclusively for cars.
