For a lot of reasons I am using a vehicle profile with activated "small local road". I've adjusted speed-values (50/20) and preference (30) to my needs and it works very well, but... from 44.517218, 6.747782 to 44.515428, 6.750335 MFN leads me through a road tagged with "living_street". Is this a wanted behavior in MFN when using "small local roads"? Regards, James
@chattiewoman: I live in Austria where it is, simply said, forbidden to drive in a living street (Wohnstraße), if you don't live there. But it looks like this legal definition differs from OSM definitions.
It seems like Navigator does not consider implicit maxspeeds on living streets in its routing calculation.
When choosing a starting end ending point as indicated in this link, Navigator always wants to send me through the living street Landertweg. I assume it is because no maxspeed is tagged, which in Germany and many other countries is correct: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dliving_street#National_specialities I think that due to missing explicit maxspeed tag, 50 km/h is assumed, else I cannot explain the current route suggestion. Quite annoying ...
Tomas, you know that old discussion about small local roads: as long as Navigator does not change its road classifications, most users at least in Germany need the small local roads enabled, else no or too long routes will be found. And enabled small local roads does not yet explain why the living street is chosen at all - the routing takes too long over it.
Before that, my percents were simply reduced (the lower the road level, the lower the percentage), but they were all quite high (35% for small local roads until 45 % for motorways).
