I just bought a 911 street number sign for the gate at our new place. It's amazing how inconsistent the various map apps will show our address.

I'm also going to buy a sign for our private road. I'm surprised the other 5 neighbors haven't thought to put a street sign out at the main road.

Im surprised google maps changed anything. Our neighbors private driveway still shows up on google maps as a through road. It dead ends at their house. For at least 10 years they've tried to get it changed. They keep getting semis, including doubles, stuck in his driveway.

Google never changes their software.

He put a large sign stating private driveway, no exit. Doesnt stop the sheep that follow their GPS to hell and back.

I've been able to change a few errors around here. It wasn't quick and a few items had to be submitted more than once, but they did fix it in the end. I certainly had the feeling that an algorithm or a human was sorting to what to act upon.

All the best,

Peter

Google refused my map addition. After a while I determined they did me a favor and I dropped the issue.

What a blessing in hind sight.

Google maps had street view down our private drive, past our house and to the one neighbor beyond us. They had my address pinned at my barn gate.... brilliant.

I sent in a complaint; they removed the streetview and re-pinned my address to the front house gate -- it can be done.
