Sounds like a similar situation to the advisory sign discussion (non-rule/law based signs giving information to motorists) Traffic_sign:advisory=carjacking Coupled with whatever hazard=* you want to throw on it. (Or similar, I forget the exact tag syntax at the moment...) I'm sure there are plenty of situations where "no stopping because of natural danger" exist. One of the roads up a volcano here (Kusatsu-Shirane) in Japan is surrounded by sulphur vents. There is an advisory to roll up windows and not to stop, to avoid the smell and possible asphyxiation (if there is a big burp of sulphur). It's not too much of a stretch to use it for a social danger *if* the signage actually exists. If it is just your opinion, that is also debatable, as we do strive to get the local mapper's ground truth - but without a sign, that certainly is a big can of worms. With a sign - we're just mapping signs. - theft of valuables (don't leave valuables in the car) - car theft (lock your car!) - pickpockets / bag thieves - prison (no stopping for hitchhikers) Also, natural warning signs - dangerous animals (lions, bears, Pumas, snakes, etc) in rural/backcountry trailheads - land mines (certain countries) -tsunami zone (entering a low area) - turn car wheels to curb (very steep hill parking) These signs may not be necessary, but for micromappers who are mapping the vending machines' serial numbers (found in Tokyo), having a decent framework for advisory signs themselves to be mapped (regardless if they are rendered) should be considered.
