      Border control is not really needed when you only travel in the EU as ling you have open borders.

      Supermarket icon... I don't see the benefit of that.

      Maybe others do, might be an useful addition.

        Coming from a prospective of a motorcycle rider doing a day trip, nah, indeed, simply using the lunch icon would imho also suffice.

        However, thinking a bit more out of the box: from an i.e. RV perspective doing a humongous holiday trip, moving from destination to destination, a supermarket icon that indicates where to load supplies would definitely be useful. πŸ˜„ A border icon for that matter can also be useful to that same kind of user category πŸ˜‰, especially considering the fact that the user base of MRA is vastly extending beyond the EU.

            Not everyone travels only in EU. MRA is an international product with users worldwide.
            Besides that, some people like to know when they cross a border, even if they are open.
            Especially since in the EU we have open borders (although some seem to want to close them...) the smaller border crossing roads often are not showing the border very clearly. In such a case it can be meaningful to add a sign while planning.

            I am not really waiting for such a sign personally, but sometimes it is worthwhile to empathize with another person's situation.

            I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

            Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

              even within the EU many of the old border control posts still exist, so they are a feature on the road even if they are now mostly unattended & not in use

              I actually mark border crossings with a warning waypoint with text telling me of its imminent arrival
              I find it is not unusualΒ to find police vehicles lurking around border crossingsΒ even if there is no passport or immigration control
