no turn by turn gps usually causes them to blindly follow that without thinking. in places like Seattle there's a huge difference between GPS and actually knowing your way around. also paying someone to drive you somewhere kinda loses it's appeal once you have to tell them how to do it, especially if you are inebriated on your way home.
- karmelapple 11y agoIf you feel GPS does not take care of this to your satisfaction, then I hope you also don't get any new taxi cab drivers or ones that recently moved to the area, because they will also suffer from that problem, unless there's some special training most cabbies take to eliminate the need for GPS. I use turn-by-turn - or at least look at a map - even in places I know the best way to, because traffic, construction, or other unexpected developments may dictate going a different way, and looking at a map can help avoid unexpected surprises. And if you're inebriated, there's much more value in getting someone else to drive you home than simply not having to tell them the best possible route. But sure, it's not great if you're paying someone and also needing to tell them how to do their job. But it sure beats the alternative of driving drunk or sleeping outside the bar.
