Police in the Australia state of Victoria have contacted Apple
after incorrect information within its mobile mapping system put
drivers heading to the small town of Mildura in “potentially life
threatening” situations, as they were led to a national park some
70 kilometers off target.
Apple replaced Google Maps with its own maps app in the iPhone's latest software upgrade.
The app has been widely panned around the world for its poor map data, which shows numerous mistakes.
Victoria Police say that in the past two months they have rescued six people who were lost in the Murray Sunset National Park while trying to get to Mildura - more than 70 kilometres away.
