A Bihar family, misled by Google Maps, spent a night trapped in Bheemgad forest before local police rescued them the next morning after they regained network to seek help.

In Short

  • Bihar family follows GPS, ends up deep in forest territory
  • Forced to spend night in car amidst wilderness
  • Walks 4 kms to find network, rescued by cops next day

    I’m sure they would have done better with mapquest.

      MapQuest uses OpenStreetMap data, so that may actually be true for areas where Google Maps has poor coverage.
