Directing to a nearby street?

I’ve had a couple of recent URs where waze has directed users to a street adjacent to a place rather than to the parking road where the entry point is located.

eg, to a street in a housing estate adjacent to a school, rather than into the school’s car park. And to a street on the opposite side of Tesco from the car park. Unfortunately these streets had no access to the destination.

I’m not able to see anything wrong on the map, so I’m wondering whether waze detects slow traffic in the car park and directs users to a nearby road thinking this will be faster? Or is there just a bug in the app?

Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks.

Do you know what they entered as their destination?
If they used the postcode, rather than the place name, it could be that the nearby street is the closest road to the postcode point.

Can you post any permalinks to the examples?
