I limited my discussion to single use roads (either track or driveway), because I was trying to attack "something used solely as driveway but low quality may not be tagged as a driveway" what is clearly wrong. I forgot about this case where something is actually both driveway and both track. > You seem to be saying that the presence of a dwelling > trumps all other uses, but that doesn't make sense to me.

But in some cases you have one house or one isolated group of houses deep in a forest. In this case I would say that last stage (road connecting this dwelling to the forest track system) is highway=service, service=driveway, without downgrading entire forest track system to a driveway status. So maybe my claim should be "something used solely or primarily as a driveway is a driveway, no matter its physical characteristics (surface, lane count, smoothness, access, ownership). And therefore tagged as highway=service service=driveway" ? > I also don't want to say that a logging track is a > residential driveway just because there's one guy with a parcel > somewhere fifteen miles off the highway, when the only other traffic > on the track is International Paper's trucks. > >
