The Autistic Innovator :pri: on Nostr: Google told me to go to this bus stop, what time the bus would come, but after ...

Google told me to go to this bus stop, what time the bus would come, but after waiting 25 minutes and none of the buses it said were coming ever did. Turns out I was supposed to go to the bus stop on the other side of the street. I saw the bus I needed drive by, but I was at the wrong stop. The bus was so late I thought fuck it I'll just walk there. Got a good way there but then it took me to a highway intersection where there was absolutely nowhere for a pedestrian to go. So I said ugh just take me to a bus stop. It takes me right back to where I was originally and still told me to get on the wrong side of the street. Instead of a super fast journey home, it took an 1.5 hours for a 24 minute journey home from where I was.

That is the last time I trust Google's public transit mapping and walking routes.
