<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Marko,<br><br><div>> IMO, mkgmap should not silently ignore anything. We should generate a <br>> warning too.<br>> <br>> BTW, one more case that I do not know if you are handling yet: Issue a <br>> warning if the result would not be any different if the turn restriction <br>> did not exist. This is not only about oneway direction. For example, if <br>> there is only_straight_on on a road with no junction, a warning should <br>> be issued.<br><br>Sure, whenever a restriction is ignored there should be a reasonable explanation.<br><br>> <br>> BTW, I accidentally loaded a relation somewhere in Russia and downloaded <br>> the surroundings. There were lots of no_u_turn on every crossing of a <br>> major road. That kind of micro-mapping does not exist over here; I guess <br>> that mappers expect people to apply common sense and not make a u-turn <br>> as soon as the navigator suggests it, no matter what.<br>> <br>> I think that no_u_turn restrictions are somewhat a matter of a local <br>> convention. In the US it is common to forbid left turns and U-turns <br>> except in a few junctions. In Finland, that practice only exists on some <br>> major through-routes in cities.<br><br>AFAIK we have no no_u_turn restrictions in Germany, so for me they all look obsolete ;-)<br><br>Gerd<br></div>                                            </div></body>
