Sounds like we need highway=giveway too! Playing the Devil's Advocate, it is not sophisticated, but what is actually bad about just placing a separate node on the road with the stop/giveway sign/marking as suggested?
There is a physical correspondence, that is where you stop. Very easy to enter; easy to process in routing algorithms (just count the nodes and calculate a penalty?); easy to pull out and put in the right place for rendering if desired. The only issue I can see is directionality. Mike Stockholm At 10:45 AM 1/24/2008, serge karamazov wrote: >Even if we mark right-of-way, how do we know there's a stop and not >just a give way?
