We've(USA) had issues with mapping programs, not just Google maps, routing people down rough two tracks who didn't have the skills, nor the vehicle, to handle those rough two tracks. Many mapping programs deleted those roads. I think they should have marked them as not available for routing.
A really on-the-ball mapping program would give a “high-clearance 4x4 only” option to route over them.
