Tuen Mun Road (Tuen Mun Central) is not a motorway
Tai Po Road (Sha Tin Central) is also not a motorway

By definition, it is motorway. It is the most important road in the country, above grade interchanges, high quality, high speed. On and off ramps. It is not good practice to have a short section of road change classifications , the rest of the road is motorway.

They are by definition NOT a motorway simply the law of motorway does not apply on those sections. The roads signs are not in green, there are explicitly end of motorway signs at Sam Shing, and there are bus stops at Hung Kiu as well.

Thank you for your response. The function of the road is more motorway and since they are short segments, it would be best for these road segments to continue through. You will notice that throughout OSM, this is a standard. If you look at the following two cities, you will notice that the motorways continue through in a steady and even flow:

It would help the flow of traffic navigation and would also help keep the OSM standard in Hong Kong if we leave these segments as motorway. Thank you!

Sorry, it is legally wrong to mark those short segments as motorway because in reality motorway laws don't apply on those segments. For example, you can drive a 100 cc motorcycle on those segments but not on motorways. Motorways have an indisputable strict legal definition, unlike other kinds of roads.
