I’d say municipality/landowners, Google and the driver themself.
Municipality, land owners for not marking it, fixing it, making sure nobody mistakenly drives there. Google for routing him over it. Also the driver too for their part. Though not knowing the specifics it’s hard to say how much responsibility everyone has exactly but I’d say most of it lies on the municipality/landowners. Depending on who is supposed to mark those things over there.
So the lawsuit has merit? Because it does. And Google is culpable.
Not necessarily. Firstly because I don’t actually think there is any requirement that maps are 100% accurate, Google never a claim made anywhere that they are flawless. Secondly because if the city / town / local authority hasn’t put up signs, it’s entirely possible that they haven’t informed map makers either.
So map makers are not responsible for inaccuracies in their map, and even if they were responsible, they may not have been told.
There’s levels of culpability and in this scenario Google seem to be right at the bottom, if on the list at all.
So what you’re saying is that Google is on the list, and has some culpability.
It doesn’t fucking matter that they don’t have ALL of it. It only matters that they have SOME of it and all you dumb fucks keep saying that they do but that the lawsuit doesn’t have merit. But it does, because they do, and you all agree. Have yall never studied law before??
Not really. I think they have a part of the responsibility but as with previous similar cases, I don’t think they’ll see any legal consequences.
You just said they have some responsibility. Do they or don’t they??
Not sure what part of my comment makes you unsure on what I think. Yes they have some responsibility.
