I remember how in my childhood the grown-up who drove in my family never needed the consult the map, it seemed they always knew how to get somewhere.
Funny how the video said the big TV screen is just for the demo, the finished product would not have that because it's too distracting.
- devilbunny 6y agoI don't need to consult a map all that often, but I use mapping software on my phone because it's traffic-aware and knows routes that locals might but tourists often don't. Most people know one good way to get to regular destinations, often linked in a chain to other places, but combining the best routes from A to B and from B to C does not necessarily add up to the best way from A to C.
