I just downloaded all highway=mini_roundabout nodes and just browsed
around a bit comparing the nodes to Bing imagery. There are a *lot* of
turning circles tagged as mini roundabouts. And not just in North
America. Some of them are turning circles with an island in the middle
but many of them are s
The first two would unquestionably be tagged with highway=mini_roundabout up
here.

The problem seems to be that mappers needed a tag for a small roundabout
on a node. Since all that was available was mini_roundabout, that's what
we used. Had there been another tag, e.g. highway=roundabout, we
wouldn't have this discussion. But mini_roundabout is now in use for a
large number

How are you going to properly map the first one? There is no

So this is not/should not be a mini_roundabout? It seems a little silly

What about this one? Also a full on roundabout?

Paul,
It looks like a manhole cover (albeit a rather nice one).
Are you sure it's a miniroundabout? :-)

Not necessary, I'm not the one suggesting node tagging is a substitute for
mapping a nontraversible median.

You're assuming that each real-world situation has only one correct way
of mapping.

I suppose if you ignored the whole traversability or vertical
