Calling the driveway a 'flare' is a bit confusing, in my understanding a roundabout flare is the typical widening with two oneway segments around a small island. Such flares should be counted.

I encountered a similar situation as you describe, where some private gravel parking area in front of a house was connected to a roundabout, and OsmAnd counted it. Tagged highway=service without qualifier.

I agree with those that tagging highway=service + service=driveway should cause the router not to count it as exit. If the router does still count it, I'd recommend to open an issue there.

Hi,
is there a tag to ignore a roundabout flare in counting the exits?
Is it a good idea for a navigator to ignore an exit and risk confusion?
What number should it say if that's the way to go?

Ignore flares if not used in counting.

The roundabout i have in mind has 4 normal exits and one "exit" which is
basically i private driveway. Its that small that noone not known to the
location would notice it.

Mapillary has some images but the website is broken right now.
In the josm plugin you can view the images.

Typical exists have islands and 2 oneway flares. But there is one very
small driveway exit nobody really notices but it will be counted.
