In my reading every highway which is not limited access should not be
tagged as motorway, be it in north america or elsewhere.

The "access" in "limited acccess" is driveway access to adjacent properties,
not access by certain vehicles.


Do you have a source for this? Look here for instance: "To respond to
a comment from a State
DOT, the FHWA adds paragraph 06 to recommend that the NO PEDESTRIANS
OR BICYCLES (R5–10b) sign, when used on a freeway or expressway exit or
entrance ramp, should be installed in a location where it is clearly
visible to any
pedestrian or bicyclist attempting to enter the limited access facility from a
street intersecting the exit ramp."
