Yep there are many private roads and driveways being shown as part of the road network. Google treats private roads as just roads. (Which is a pretty good analogy for how they treat private information as just information, but I'm being flippant.) I'm waiting for the wrongful-death suit by the family of the shot trespasser.
- voisin 5y agoAn apt analogy, and I think your discussion of private roads / driveways is accurate as to what the problem is. I will never forget being led from a highway, to a side road, to a gravel road, to a rougher gravel road, to a one lane gravel road, to something that looked like a washed out river at best, only to be blocked by a large steer standing in the middle of the "road" that appeared to be as stunned by my presence there as I was. I ended up having to reverse quite a bit before I could find somewhere to turn around. I deleted Google Maps shortly thereafter.
