Here are a few examples for you: Nearby motorway: maxspeed=none maxspeed:hgv=100 maxspeed:(22:00-06:00)=120 maxspeed:(22:00-06:00):hgv=80 maxspeed:wet=80 Nearby pedestrian area (I will try to get a picture of the signs for this one for educational purposes): access:bicycle=yes access:vehicle:(weight<10):(Mo-Fr 06:00-11:00; Sa 06:00-10:00):delivery=yes access:vehicle:(19:00-10:00):destination=yes access:vehicle:taxi:(Mo-Fr 20:00-10:00; Sa, Su, PH 20:00-11:00)=yes > > We cannot just > > discard an idea when we find one flaw.

Well, if this proposal fails I would say everybody who voted against it has to come up with a better one (where "better" is based on some actual arguments), but I do not believe in Santa Claus either. What probably happens is that this discussion dies, and people will either use this proposal (as they have done before) or use the note and fixme keys (as they have done before).
