you can't asume this to be a global law. In other countries (e.g.
Germany or Italy) you must use a pedestrian crossing if it is close to
you. If you are more then x meters away (i.e. you are in the middle of
a road) you can simply cross anywhere, provided you don't endanger the
traffic or yourself. 
 
In Italy this is true (only if you cross perpendicularly to the street), but 
how can we map where this is not possible without drawing the sidewalk 
separately? I'm not so experienced in tagging and I wonder which tags can we 
use on the highway for cases like in [1] or even more complicated? Maybe if you 
are in shape you can jump over the fence :-), if you are in a wheelchair you 
can't even cross the small step of the sidewalk..
