There are 2 possibilities here: the jurisdiction has specific laws for tricycles, or other specific vehicles we don't have a vehicle class for, then we should add these vehicle classes in our tagging system, or these vehicles are set to be treated like another vehicle, e.g. to a tricycle apply the same rules than to a bicycle, in this case the user will have to select the corresponding vehicle class in his application. There can be a problem when doing international routing, crossing borders where the relevant rules change, but a dedicated tricycle router will likely be able to compile her maps in a suitable way (using osm country boundaries and external data (e.g. osm wiki) to what a tricycle equates in these countries or which defaults to choose for missing data). cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
