I won't see this as a problem, indeed in rural areas around here, almost all bus stops (with exception of the terminal stop and some important ones in city centers) work like this. > > >> Where would you wait if you wanted to take the bus at this stop? > > > Next to the road roughly guesstimating the closest safe spot for the > driver to stop at. > I'd put the stop in OSM at that position.
