Hi,
this is because of how the Garmin Routing algorithm works.

Depending on the current GPS position (which is not always exact) the
next routable line is taken. Even if this is blocked for motorcar.

You can fix this by making sideways non routable. But then it's no
longer working for pedestrian routing.
