Re: Google Maps - wrong road name - reported a few times - any insider contacts?

I get to do this, yearly, for where I live, as I also run a side 
business from my home. Google Maps has a tendency to drop off visitors 
on the next road over. Having lived here 10 years, I've now given up to 
get things corrected.
