Not necessarily. Firstly because I don’t actually think there is any requirement that maps are 100% accurate, Google never a claim made anywhere that they are flawless. Secondly because if the city / town / local authority hasn’t put up signs, it’s entirely possible that they haven’t informed map makers either.
So map makers are not responsible for inaccuracies in their map, and even if they were responsible, they may not have been told.
There’s levels of culpability and in this scenario Google seem to be right at the bottom, if on the list at all.

I don’t think you know how the law works. Google are not legally required to have accurate maps.
Ethically maybe (although even then it’s highly debatable), but not legally so, no, the lawsuit has no merit
You randomly arguing the point doesn’t change reality

Not really. I think they have a part of the responsibility but as with previous similar cases, I don’t think they’ll see any legal consequences.

Not sure what part of my comment makes you unsure on what I think. Yes they have some responsibility.
