Reporting an issue in navigation mode

I would like to report an issue with navigation mode.

In Argentina, it is prohibited by law to turn left on a two way street if there is a traffic light (and no arrow light).

Currently, when using navigation mode in Maps to drive my car, I encounter this issue all the time.

For example, yesterday I was driving, and Maps told me to turn left:

But that turn is prohibited. There was even a sign like this (which I couldn't get a photo of):

Hereby I quote the argentine transit law (n° 24449):

"(...)

ARTICLE 44. In streets with traffic lights:

a)...

(...)

f) In two way streets, do not turn left unless there is a sign that allows it"

 

It would be great if this issue got fixed, because nowadays I am unable to use Maps for driving because of this. You are most likely to get pulled off by the police if you turn left like this, and get a fine or suspend (even lose) your driving license. This actually happened to a friend of mine because she was using Maps when driving.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi @ValeriaA_,

 

For this kind of systematic and large scale issues, a Google Moderator should be alerted directly.

Actually I've reported this through the app many times in the last years and it keeps happening, that's why I'm posting it here.

Thanks @YK1001.
