Maybe it would matter in case where there is one road used as driveway and second road that may be used to access property but is unused, possibly due to poor state. But that would because one functions as driveway and one not. In case of people using worse-quality road as a driveway and not using better quality road as a driveway the tagging also should follow function and road used as driveway should be tagged as driveway. > , it will depend on the other driveways in the area what is acceptable as a > driveway > Driveway may be of any quality. highway=service with service=driveway may be unpaved, muddy and require tractor to pass. If it is driveway then it still should be tagged as such, not as highway=track.
