So it is in Alaska where my scenario is located. When I'm plugging along in my RV and there are cars following me, I signal, turn into the turnout lane and allow those cars to pass me. Sometimes, if the following vehicles aren't able to pass before I run out of room, I'll either stop for a few seconds or pull back onto the main highway until the next turnout comes along. I'm still not convinced the lanes:smv tagging scenario is the best solution but were I to change my mind, how would I tag my turnouts? Here is another screen shot of the particular section of highway with a turnout on both sides of the road that I've been discussing (59.752103, -151.766395 ) with the ways removed for clarity: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nm6iahw9ch79tuh/slow_vehicle_turnout.jpg?dl=0 On Sun, Sep 9, 2018 at 7:39 PM SelfishSeahorse <selfishseaho...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sun, 9 Sep 2018 at 12:15, Philip Barnes <p...@trigpoint.me.uk> wrote: > > The only signage on autoroute with voie pour vehicules lents is the > start of a new crawler lane in English and a sign indicating 'vehicules > lents'.
