Just based on the fact that Google's business model is inherently incompatible with privacy, I'd stay away.
It is in Google's best interest to sneakily track people despite claiming not doing so, and they can be very good at it and do in a way that's undetectable from the outside. In fact, I would be surprised if they're not doing this already.

Can you give us direction how busy the $Business_you_parked_nearby is? And, this https://www.google.com/maps/timeline?hl=en&authuser=0&pb https://www.google.com/maps/timeline?hl=en&authuser=0&pb Google shouldn't even be collecting this. But they are. We know not how they use it. But if you have the data, of course you're using it!
