I’m in a location where Apple Maps is significantly better than Google’s. So I’m unsure if you mean ”it’s Apple Maps meme bad” or if you just mean ”it’s rather meh, could be better, could be worse”.

Apple Maps used to direct people off of bridges and into ditches and stuff.

It’s a swell experience, now, but, the “meme” comes directly from reality.

And Google Maps literally did something very similar to me once, just a few years ago. Told me straight ahead when there was a sharp hairpin obscured by overhead bridge (literal mapping issue in unusual motorway adjacent road). Caused a crash with minor injuries I got back up and walked away from (on two wheels, would have been fatal if I didn't brake so well, or didn't get off the road fast enough, a large truck came round the corner). Takeaway is "never make driving decisions based on what the screen shows." There is no platform worth trusting more than your eyes on the road ahead.
