yes, but that's also what the routes do in the real world: they only make half a turn. What is exactly the problem? The routers for instance should be able to deal nicely with a roundabout that is made up of 2 or more smaller ways. (I am aware that not all do, but this is less a data problem IMHO). > The splitting of the roundabout for the route relations is also causing a > lot of unintentional "vandalism", where mappers add a roundabout, and do not > check for the existence of routes.
