So the first waymo to get to this less used road to john’s will not have the data rather than every waymo that travels down a new highway, that then becomes a problem if it rains.
One car with an issue of first coincides with rain on a less used road?
Well, it's closer to: any car with stale data and sufficient water depth is a financial and PR disaster. These cars are not cheap, and a tiktok of someone being driven into the water is even more expensive!

As soon as the car descends below what was mapped it should be able to know there is a discrepency.
Satellite monitoring is also available for detecting extensive road work which they could use to invalidate and send out something to remap.
