I wish Google Maps had a "I'm walking home by myself at night" mode that would show you a way with well lit paths and open spaces. It always seems to take you on narrow, dark pathways in cities

Same for accessible routes. It doesn’t mention if a route involves e.g. a footbridge over a railway line. You only find out when you’re pushing a buggy that you have to completely retrace your steps and find an alternate route.
The wheelchair accessible option reminds me every time that it may or may not be wheelchair accessible.

Google has started asking me if businesses I visit are wheelchair accessible. Which is kind of good? But why is that information missing in the first place. Businesses should be responsible for that.
-
Agreed, but business's idea of accessibility doesn't always match wheelchair users experience of accessibility.
-
Yeah, it's in a business's interest to veer on the side of saying 'yes', and besides, most businesses have more customers than employees, which increases the odds of people making accurate reports.

Google maps relies on local people to make such detailed edits to the map, that's why they keep it open for anyone with correct & helpful information can make & publish edits on the map. Be a Google Local Guide

It is at this point that I want wheelchairs to become giant robots so they can smash things. And step over obstacles. But mostly smash things.
