When there is a house or building back from the road, I often add a driveway. It makes it clear how to get to the building. For existing TIGER ways (that actually exist) I would attempt to tag them correctly rather than delete. In Western Washington they are often forest service roads that may or may not still exist. Some become abandoned and are replanted or overgrown. Many of the forest service roads were classified as residential. Those need to be fixed. We don't want a tourist to get lost in the mountains.
