I have been trying to have dirt roads show up in the render for about
a year now. I see that that the Map legend has "unsurfaced" road. I
have looked around but can not find any roads that have the Map
Legends use of unsurfaced road(Road, but with dashes). I have looked
in Europe and these roads, are listed as tracks, in America, this are
roads, they just happen to be dirt. I am a cyclist so sometimes I am
trying to find dirt roads, and while other times I am trying to avoid
dirt roads.
I think the general idea is that track is a dirt roads fit for
two-tracked vehicles (cars, agricultural) and path is a dirt road fit
for one-tracked vehicles (because too narrow for two-tracked).
I would use these two for your purpose. That is as you rightly say how
they are used in Europe.
A track with tracktype=grade1 is could even be a proper road.
Maybe you have some streetview examples of what you want to map? I could
offer you this one [1] which I would map as a grade 3, although it
recently had a load of gravel deposited on it, making it more a grade 2.
