A traffic mirror is a mirror that reflects the traffic on one road to the point where vehicles from another direction are waiting to turn onto this street and the direct view is blocked.
How to map
It is generally mapped as a node but you can also use the proposed relation :
Mapping as node
Place a node where the mirror is located and tag it with highway=traffic_mirror.
It is frequently added the tag direction=* to precise the direction mirror face up.
Mapping as relation
- Create relation
type=traffic_mirror - A node where you are waiting, looking at the mirror:
role=from- This is used if you have to give way to the other direction you can watch in the mirror.
- A node where you cross over after you have left the crossing:
role=to- This is used if from this point you do not have to give way to the street watched in the mirror (you don't really need it)
highway=traffic_mirrorfor the pole with the node:role=mirror- This should be a bi-directional node.
