Google maps geocoding API does not return results that google maps returns

I use google maps geocoding API v3 to get the gps coordinates for several addresses.

I don't know why for the address "Autostrada A22 Brennero-Modena, KM 308"

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=A22+Brennero-Modena+KM+308&sensor=true

it returns ZERO_RESULTS.

The problem is that if I search the same address on google maps it returns the correct result.

What am I missing?

Thank you in advance,

Mario

The API geocoder finds postal addresses. I'd guess you're trying to find the marker at 308km on that autoroute. The API geocoder can't do that. The Places service might be able to.
