  • I think Google should have enough data by now though. If you put a residential address in, probably easy to park.

    If someone puts in a theatre and then spends 20 min driving around the center/downtown, they are probably parking. Then you can count the walking time at well.

    Same for someone parking at giant American Walmart with a huge lot. Google can track and already tell what mode of vehicle you are using. They do the statistics to estimates parking times under various conditions.

    It won’t solve it in rural places, but even in Europe people sometimes thing driving is faster, when it’s not. In California cities, I remember buses were often very fast, but people don’t believe it because they go off Google maps and ignore parking
