However, if you were writing a routing program, it would be unwise to assume
that you can drive through a barrier=gate if no additional access is specified.
Often a gate is locked shut.
You can only make that assumption for your area, however as Liz points
out, in other places the gate is for animal control, not for limiting
access.
In other cases the gates are opened at sunrise and shut at sunset.
Yes, these are all common situations in Europe as well, that's why we
should strongly advice to add additional tags to gates.
thats a good idea
lets put access a mandatory tag (not just useful)
along barrier=gate
so editing soft always ask for it
and error software (as keep_right) highlights it as missing info.
+0.5
I would say, it's NOT an error to not map the access tags itself -
sometimes the mapper don't know this facts - as mentioned in this thread
before.
But I totally agree, that it's a mandatory tag to be sure at usage, so
it should be displayed as error in error tracking software (keep right
etc.), and mentioned as a warning (or kind of soft error) in editor
software (like the josm validator).
