A separate sign that prohibits use especially for passenger cars is not included in the Vienna Convention and is also absent in the legislation of most joining European countries (absent in 19 of the 20 countries


the access classes are used for many different things, not just access to roads and not just specific restrictions with *=no, there can also be exclusive restrictions (e.g. nobody except motorcars, so to exclude motorcycles, hgv, bikes, etc. in one go) where motorcar=yes is used.


Looks like the changes were made in April by Multimodall.

As I say .. not a tag I use. My usual things exclude all motor vehicles .. so I don't have that problem.

How many cases are there where cars only are evident? i.e. where hgv, trucks motorcycles, side-cars, tractors and mopeds are not effected?
While they may exist in the data base .. are they not really motor_vehicle?
I don't know.. will have a look locally
Ok .. they all look like they should be motor_vehicle not motorcar!!!
Thanks .. I'll change all these here to motor_vehicle.

Perhaps the wiki page for motorcar should suggest the use of motor_vehicle.
