Cars are not allowed on the El Monte Busway; why does Google Maps say otherwise?

When I asked Google Maps for directions, it said to drive a car on the El Monte Busway. This is not allowed. Why does Google Maps say to do it?Cars are not allowed on the El Monte Busway; why does Google Maps say otherwise?
who told cars were not allowed, they are allowed but you have be in a carpool of 3 or more passengers
Google maps is similar to Mapquest in that they are not 100% correct. When I was a directory assistance operator for cellular calls (2000-2003), certain streets or locations where not mentioned; and when I was a delivery driver (2004-2008), I was given directions to the Compton School District but it mentioned driving through some side streets (where the gangbangers where), so it's not 100% true all of the time. Also if you do what they recommend, you'll have the Sheriff's Deputies or the Highway Patrol waiting for you at the other end!Cars are not allowed on the El Monte Busway; why does Google Maps say otherwise?
This might be a question better directed at Google, instead of Yahoo.



Having said that, wouldn't you think that a thoroughfare called a BUSWAY would be reserved for BUSES? Isn't it implied that this would be a road reserved for buses, and wouldn't it make sense to use your common sense and avoid it regardless of what Google says?



Hey ... I'm just sayin ...Cars are not allowed on the El Monte Busway; why does Google Maps say otherwise?
That's why it's always best to ask locally for directions. Try to make contact with Google Maps to get this information updated.
