    Except when it is frustrating and continually tries to send you through tiny “technically paved” service roads so you know anyone unfamiliar to the area would risk car damage because there is no way to mark a road as “low priority” or “only use if you live on that road”.

    Street complete is very awesome though! Especially for updating local businesses.

      Are you referring to smoothness=bad or a narrow width? (I’m guessing you’ve been using StreetComplete to specify each.)

        Holy shit, I never found smoothness in the OSM editor. Does that actually effect routing priority?

        That might be a game changer for making my local area much better on OSM.

        BRouter and other routing engines can use attributes like surface and smoothness (and probably width) to calculate routes.

      That’s especially fun for those of us on motorcycles. I found a particularly horrible road to ride a sport touring bike on several years ago and would have loved this feature on osm.
