I started documenting a bit after i saw Mapfactor Navigator using the
information for displaying.

lanes=                  # Number of lanes
turn:lanes=             # Where does each lane turn to through|left|right
destination:lanes=      # Whats the destination on the sign e.g

lanes=3
turn:lanes=left|through|right
destination:lanes=New York|San Diego|San Francisco

Mapfactor Navigator will show the lanes available - which to use and
the destination the lane leads to.

The only issue i have with the above scheme is the implicit dimensional
extension using the pipe | symbole
