Yes, I know that junction=yes works fine for simple crossroads. My question is: How should we map complex junctions like http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2351057522#map=19/5.34399/-4.00300 Using just an unconnected node like in this example (even after removing the wrong place=hamlet tag) maybe is difficult for turn-to-turn navigation software. So, how can we solve this?
