I've seen that same warning for walking. I think it's just Google saying "good luck with that; we're not legally responsible". I think those warnings have shown up more since cars would follow the GPS with zero common sense and drive into a lake or something.
Good point. It does read like a liability disclaimer.
I've noticed that Google doesn't always get the speed limit correct on more rural roads.
Or it can't tell if a temporary, lowered speed sign has been posted in a construction zone, for example.
Or as I've seen when they have got the lowered speed because of roadworks, but then keep the low speed after everything is finished. No, I think I can drive faster than 50kmh on the motorway.
