And some people trust it without a second thought. This past New Years there was a huge snow storm in the Tahoe area, many roads were closed, and clueless Bay Area people were following google maps directions around the closures into unmaintained mountain roads in a huge blizzard.
even in the days of paper maps people would drive to tahoe utterly unprepared. Much as I dislike Google I don't think they can be blamed for clueless Bay Area people.
