True for overtaking. But it' correct for turning left/right and u-turn
restrictions.

Hmm, look at the wiki first:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Divided_road

and consider this assumption:
"By default, when a divided way has a junction with a non-divided way,
the division is unbroken."

But I agree that such assumptions are very hard to keep in OSM (where
usually a tag shall be self-explanatory).
