Nearly 100 Drivers Following Google Maps Detour Get Stuck in Muddy Field Near Denver Airport

A crash on Pea Boulevard, a road leading to Denver International Airport, prompted the app to take drivers on a detour on Sunday.

The alternate route took drivers down a dirt road that rain had turned into a muddy mess, and cars started sliding around.

Some vehicles couldnt make it through the mud, and about 100 others became trapped behind them.

I thought maybe theres a detour and pulled it up on Google Maps, and it gave me a a detour that was half the time, she said. It was 43 minutes initially, and it was going to be 23 instead so I took the exit and drove where they told me to.

There were a bunch of other cars going down [the dirt road] too, so I said, I guess its OK. It was not OK.
