Following Google Maps directions in rural Tasmania and encountered this sign.

@MikeElgan
Y'know though, if you report a problem to Maps, they can and will fix it.

There's a closed bridge in a town nearby, it's been closed for almost 3 years waiting for state funding to repair it, but nobody, not even the town highway department thought to report it to Google, so Maps routed over it all the time.

I reported it, and 3 weeks later it showed up as closed.

It may be flawed, but it's dynamic.

@RealGene @MikeElgan So whether Google acts on feedback depends on the product? Or is this something where they'll only act if it's submitted from a device that (according to location data) has been near the place you suggest a correction about?

I mean, they never got back to me or did anything about unblocking
https://groups.google.com/g/mozilla.support.seamonkey, and I think I used some contact/feedback feature in the Google Groups interface.

@njsg @MikeElgan
I specifically said "Maps".

Asking GOOG to fix anything with Groups is like expecting a fossil to grow as it gets older. It's a zombie, but they probably fired the only person who knows how to shut it off.

@RealGene I’ve reported screwed up directions for stores I sold jewelry to. The owners never thought to complain to Google. @MikeElgan
