Germany has the Autobahn system and thus relatively short travel times. I’m pretty sure even smaller countries like Latvia have two points separated by an 8+ hour drive!
Idk about Google Maps but Mapy.cz allows buses to go hella fast
How?
You can see the real time, which means the 1 min is pulled from a timetable, from 2 stations actually very close together (and named similar, too). They imported OSM data wrong, one of the stops is at the nearest road segment to 50°N 10°E. It has been fixed since.
This time though, it’s the Z-M Gewerbegebiet stop and it has no timetables associated with it, unlike the real Z-M Gewerbegebiet in the shopping district of Zella-Mehlis. Planning a trip by public transport therefore falls back to an hour-long walk from the nearest stop in Arnstein, for a total travel time of about 5 hours (as opposed to 1 hour by car) from the real Zella-Mehlis.

🇱🇻 stronk!
Now I’m curious what speed these mapping sites assume for the autobahn when predicting travel time.

Edit: actually not quite!

130 km/h as that is the “recommended” or “default” speed (Richtgeschwindigkeit in german)
