So if it sends me off on a tangent I know something is wrong. Not like the ambulance driver taking a patient home from a central London hospital who by mistake entered SK17 instead of SE17 into his satnav, and was heading up the M6 past Knutsford in Cheshire before the penny dropped that something wasn't quite right.
We called our sat-nav Useless. We tried it out on a well know route to see if it was the one that the sat-nav would give us. The sat-nav would have added another 15 minutes to our journey if we had followed it. I could swear that 'The voice' was getting a bit frustrated when we ignored her commands.
they're ok for the last half a mile of a journey if dont have street map.
a few years ok i did a bit of taxi driving and had to go to Oxted in Surrey - miles away from where I live. The satnav sent me (and my fare) down the smallest unclassified road which had bollards blocking the road half way down.
I had to turn around and go about 3 miles to get to the other side! They dont allow for real life incoveniences such as this.
