This key indicates whether a way has frequent passing places, which might or might not be mapped individually.
The location of highway places is not important - to indicate the location of the passing places themselves use highway=passing_place.
This has nothing to do with three lane sections of two lane highways to help overtaking of slower vehicles.
How to map
Applies to
which is a highway of any type and (usually) has lanes=1- passing_places=yes or passing_places=no
Passing place nodes might exist on any highway which has lanes=* with any value below 2, e.g. 1 or 1.5, likely if frequent hgv traffic is present.
Values
- passing_places=yes Way has frequent passing places, which might or might not be mapped individually. If intersections facilitating passing are frequent, they qualify as make-do passing places.
- passing_places=no Passing places don't exist frequently or at all along this way.
