I just want to second this statement. I'm quite frustrated that the TIGER import added access=private to privately maintained roads that should instead be tagged with ownership=private. This broad-scale mis-tagging suggests to later mappers that this is the way to tag privately maintained roads, leading to overly restrictive access restrictions that don't match reality.
