Anecdote:
I reported multiple places where google maps (or in this case the tesla navigation system which runs on the same) gives dangerous instructions.
One of them is right here https://www.google.com/maps/@47.6293355,-122.1879246,112m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu https://www.google.com/maps/@47.6293355,-122.1879246,112m/da...
The assistant will tell you to stay keep left (which you don't have to since both lanes converge later) way too late, causing a lot of people to cross the median last second, this caused numerious accidents.
I reported this condition twice, no actions on their end was taken.
I'd consider this neglegent.
- thehappypm 3y agoStaying left is legal though?
- SSchick 3y agoMaybe I didn't make it clear, people will be in the right lane and the assistant will instruct them last second to move to the left lane. This creates a dangerous situations as many US drivers do not care about traffic laws and cross the median. This is dangerous since this is generally unexpected to other drivers who will often have to sverve / brake to avoid collissions.
- nonfamous 3y agoA thought I might know where this is based on your description alone, and I was right, I think. I assume you're talking about the merge from 405N to 520E? I've thought the same thing about the wrong directions too.
- SSchick 3y agoUpdated link since the first variant would not point to the location accurately for some reason.
- karussell 3y agobtw: Tesla navigation system is very likely based on OpenStreetMap data and not on Google (even though the map shown is a Google map)
