The assumption is an average way has 2 lanes, one in each direction, and a stop sign only effects one direction. > So except for truly lane-based stop signs, I think that expressing stop > signs using lane-based methods would be a bad idea - as they are > direction based, not lane based, in reality. You are assuming lanes running in the same direction, but you can have lanes running in oposite directions which is what the whole issue about stop signs came from. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
