I believe it made sense in the UK, where that's an actual category of road, but it's very hard to apply here, and it's really not clear what the difference between unclassified, residential, and service is. I see people using unclassified for roads within business parks, factories, airports etc but I don't think it's right. And like you said, what difference is there really between a road that goes past factories and one that goes past homes? Steve
