Not sure it's related, but recently I tried to ask Google maps to find a way to a train station, and it confidently set the destination to the exit of a nearby highway. Yes, I double checked that I was using driving navigation, and it expected me to stop the car in the middle of the traffic.
And I have no idea what to do about this.
P.S. I never had good experience with reporting errors. Sometimes they are rejected despite absolutely being correct, or they end up having no effect at all.
- matheusmoreira 2y agoThe correct way to report errors to Google is to publicly blog about it until it reaches the HN front page and some Google insider sees it.
- kccqzy 2y agoI've had this happen to me too. I would drive there, and while still on the highway Google says I've arrived. I don't stop the car in the middle of the traffic for obvious common sense reasons, I just switch to reading the signs nearby to get to the train station or the airport. When I grew up there wasn't turn-by-turn navigation at all, so I still treat it as merely an aid and not gospel.
