Thanks for the insights, Wilmer! A few questions: 1. How do you define low, moderate and high traffic? Is it purely via intuition and guesswork or by some metric for classifying traffic? 2. Do you propose to use any topology to make a decision? For example, Road X -> Road Y -> Road Z, within urban and rural areas? 3. What has your experience been with using the highway=unclassified tag? So far, I’ve seen it used as a catch-all tag in India, and its the subject of much debate.

@adreamy - interesting to note that multiple countries seem to have difficulty in conforming to a specific system!
