Description
I am seeing many places where large cars or trucks have been classified as buildings. I wonder if this is a known issue and if there would be something that could be done to improve this. I do understand that these are very tricky objects to properly separate from real buildings. This can be seen in several places but here is an example from Germany (at 50.9605969,11.8508165)
I've seen this in multiple countries and various locations.

The report provides a Germany example at 50.9605969,11.8508165 and an image, but names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by examining the reported example and the surrounding issue discussion; done would require an agreed way to reduce vehicle-to-building misclassification across the reported locations.
