Driveways on parking lots can be useful for pedestrian or bicycle routing. 
For what it is worth, I have tried to keep finland.osm.pbf clear of these 
errors. For parking garages, it is sometimes difficult to guess the parking 
aisle layout without local survey. In those cases, I have added fixme=continue 
to the parking entrance.

You can roll your own by doing {add mkgmap:dead-end-check=false} 
on highway=service.

Best regards,
