That's quite interesting! In my experiments, the access flags for  
"delivery" and "emergency" didn't behave like the other six, so if  
"delivery" is actually "destination", that'd be great.

For the record, calling these fields DELIVERY and EMERGENCY has to do  
with the cGPSmapper documentation: The RouteParams field ends in 8 bit  
flags which are named according to the vehicle types. We're assuming  
these 8 fields actually correspond to one byte in the IMG. This may be  
off, or the cGPSmapper may be inaccurate.

But having flags "no delivery" or "no emergency vehicles" on a road  
doesn't make too much sense.

Cheers
Robert
