And this is not the case. A brief look at http://www.direct.gov.uk/prod_consum_dg/groups/dg_digitalassets/@dg/@en/documents/digitalasset/dg_070644.pdf (first page, lower right corner) suggests that this sign is not about weight, but about gross weight. So maxweight:hgv is wrong. Eckhart _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
