The sidewalks are generally parallel to the road, but are sometimes set back quite a way, as is the case on Main Street. The planned route won't send me onto a sidewalk, but if I'm driving without a route set, it will try to place me onto the nearest street. I thought the following rule would disallow this when not in pedestrian mode:

I haven't tried putting the nuvi into pedestrian mode, but I'm assuming it would try to route you on these types of roads.

Hi Brian,

I never saw this text on my Oregon. If I got you right,
you have two routable lines for the same OSM way,
the device routes you over the way for the car,
but it displays the info for the sidewalk.
Could this be the reason?
