In the UK, tertiary/unclassified/residential is subjective, other roads are tagged according to their official classification. In terms of routing in the UK, smoothness is not so much of an issue. The major factors are width (whether 2 vehicles can pass without slowing down), twistiness and visibility (the two go together, we have a lot of hedges which reduce forward visibility).
