It's probably due to the fact that the way 5231105 joins way 6844890 at such
a shallow angle.

The garmin direction message generation widget doesn't cope well with
shallow angles. Roundabouts have a similar problem (it reports the
wrong exit number if the exit way's angle is not to its liking).

Don't think there's much we can do about that. It's the data.

Cheers,

Mark
