Google has road types that it refuses to route to

[JS Girard]

I've discovered while investigating a client's complain about google routing. Turns out that google has introduced road types that display lane details. Google appears to be using these for some numbered highways only

The problem is these wreck the routing algorithm because google absolutely refuses to let you get off the road directly:

• 4663 Trans-Canada Hwy to Aqua Sport Marine
  • This one is the most absurd piece of Google routing I have ever seen. You have to see it to believe it.
• Filion Entrepreneur Forestier to Transmissions JP Inc
• 627 Rte 117 to Motel des Écorces
