    Maybe don’t try to blame a map for giving you directions to a place you asked to go to.

      I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make, since I very clearly wrote I also don’t think this was Google’s fault (even if they did stop sending people through that area a mere couple of weeks after this incident).

      I also don’t think it’s fair to blame these people for this, and so I’m trying to understand what you would’ve done differently in the same situation.
