But that's not a parking spot. Because a vehicle just happens to be

But that was my whole point. No it's not a designated car park or a
layby so it shouldn't be tagged as one. But it is something. What?
Physically it could be described as
highway=passing_place
but those are not intended to be blocked with parked vehicles.
There is also
highway=yes
verge=yes
The wiki says "Existence of verges may indicate scope for informal
parking of cars in rural areas." How to tag that there is in fact
sufficient space to leave a car?
It's not illegal to leave a vehicle on the highway provided it is not
causing an obstruction and there are no parking restrictions.
cheers,
Martin.
