Our family was heading somewhere specific in the countryside with multiple cars and our pre-GPS relatives insisted on driving as a convoy. They wanted to show us exactly where to drive instead of just agreeing on a time and a place and "see you there".
And it totally makes sense. If you don't have navigation software arriving at a specific place in a small village somewhere in the countryside where you have never been would be super stressful. They probably thought they are doing us a solid by leading us there.
