 These cases could be, that Kurviger uses a road that is not accessible. Or maybe Kurviger won't use a Route, even though you know that the road is accessible. No matter how many waypoints you place along the road, Kurviger simply won't take the road. Maybe the turn instructions are incorrect, like a missing street name or maybe no turn instruction was given at all. These cases could be, that Kurviger uses a road that is not accessible.

-Usually, if Kurviger is behaving very weird, this is because there is an issue in the OSM data, obviously this is not always the case, but usually :). If you see such an issue, while planning a route, please help to improve the OSM data. OSM is [[http://www.openstreetmap.org/stats/data_stats.html|used by millions of people]], so you are not only supporting Kurviger but a lot of different projects. You can always let us know in our [[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/kurviger|forum]] and we will help you finding the reason for the incorrect results and can report a [[https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Notes|note]] in OSM.+Usually, if Kurviger is behaving very weird, this is because there is an issue in the OSM data, obviously this is not always the case, but usually :).

 If you are wondering, why you are the first one to stumble over this issue, even though there are millions of users, this could be due to different reasons. First of all, the data is changing all the time, maybe somebody made a change that was not correct. Secondly, Kurviger prefers small roads, most routing software takes you along the highway or is only considering bike or foot routing, where access restrictions are different to motorcycles. Or maybe multiple users are suffering from this issue, but don't know how to solve the issue. We are here to help you! If you are wondering, why you are the first one to stumble over this issue, even though there are millions of users, this could be due to different reasons.

 Fords are tricky, as they are often seasonal or more challenging after rain. Kurviger will route through fords, but if they are marked as impassable or deep, we will not allow routing over them. If you are routed through a deep ford, consider updating the OSM data or let us know. Fords are tricky, as they are often seasonal or more challenging after rain.

 +==== Turn Restrictions ====
 +
 +Sometimes it can happen that turn restrictions are entered incorrectly. Kurviger supports basic turn restrictions without via nodes (see [[https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:restriction|the OSM wiki]] for more information). It is hard to spot these issues on OpenStreetMap, therefore we recommend to use [[https://ahorn.lima-city.de/tr/|this website]] that makes it easy to find turn restrictions and automatically marks them as potentially erroneous if something seems wrong.
