What are good reasons to change the direction of a way ? Oneway comes to mind, but is split way at stop sign, revert one arriving way, change the oneway tag of tag a realistic scenario ? So you end up with a oneway way that becomes a two-way road at the stop sign. Are there other reasons to revert a the direction of part of a way ?
Until now I have not seen any real example from the opponents of the direction tag on a node that shows the need for a relation because the direction of the node is ambiguous. All I have seen is "there is a theoretical possibility that..." Please prove me wrong and show some real world example where it does not work. (I do understand the need for a relation in case you have to stop unless you turn to the right). m.
