Please explain why you made this change. It almost seems like a misguided semi-automatic edit and the fact that you have been doing a lot of them concerns me. In this case, you split a 25 meter section of motorway out of the middle of a way and retagged it as trunk, seemingly because it intersects another road. However if you had examined things more closely, you would have seen that the intersecting road doesn't actually intersect any more. The highway=residential road is the one that should have been split and the intersecting piece removed. Here is the "intersection" in an OpenStreetCam image: https://openstreetcam.org/details/1134447/6657

Hi ToeBee,
Motorways do not have traffic signals or multiple intersections of residential roads. As far as I know.
I was trying to change the ones which has intersections as the sharp turns would not be possible at the speed of the motorway.

You are correct that motorways should not (generally) have intersections with residential roads. I think the very end of the motorway is one valid exception. What use is changing the last 10 meters from motorway to trunk like you did in some cases?
And as in this case, there is no actual intersection and the correct fix was to change the residential road, not the motorway.It seems like you may have been trying to fix "bugs" being reported by some QA tool. Maybe for points? What was the tool that led you to find these intersections to fix?
