Hi, Shoulders should always be tagged appropriately.
Shoulders legally in Australia can be used by all bicycles - whether or not they have a bicycle stencil (painted bicycle sign) And a bicycle lane is legally indicated by a sign and not a stencil. Legally the stencil has no meaning at all. My personal advice currently in Australia is to caution against indicating there is bicycle infrastructure where there is no amenity. Since, this is a far greater problem in OSM than missing cycle routes and infrastructure, and takes far longer to correct and survey. Google Maps has actually come from behind to lead OSM in this aspect now in Sydney in most areas. That said, most motorways that have a wide shoulder, a cycle stencil, and permit cycling have a bicycle lane indicated. I think this is probably appropriate. Ian.
