I don't know how they don't notice thousands of users driving through these "cornfields" at 60mph every day, though. You'd have thought that'd raise some alert?

- bombcar 6mo agoI’ve literally watched my car (only car around) trigger the yellow heavy traffic warning (because I was driving slow to look for something). Yet thousands of cars doing 60 mph through a cornfield and over a river doesn’t trigger a “maybe a freeway was built here?”
- xethos 6mo agoAdvertising slightly heavier traffic isn't the worst thing in the world. Telling hundreds of motorists "There's a navigable road here" when there isn't, is a bigger problem, for both Apple's PR team, and the motorists in question Verifying indepenantly is probably the reasonable response
- NetMageSCW 6mo agoSeems like that would be easy to do with some current satellite imagery?
- nomel 6mo agoWaze was pretty public about how they used it, with automatic flags and route updates with no/little human intervention. I assume everyone else is doing the same, since it's so obvious. I'm sure they know, but if it was a cornfield a couple years before, there's a good chance it's lower on the priority list, in a "how many people will this impact" sense.
