you could use 0x02 resolution 18-23, then another type for trunk 
highways. Routable types shouldn#t be used for non routable lines..... - 
at least not if map is built with address search. So far in Garmin maps, 
if 0x01, 0x02 wasn't routable, but the map itself is routable, then it 
has no address search at all (true for some Topo maps),

your style-file woudn't pass the check-styles command of mkgmap in above 
case...
