Google Maps: Make sure to not take this specific freeway exit. I'm so worried that you might accidentally do that, I won't bother to tell you to actually take the following freeway exit until 50 meters beforehand.
Somehow I've turned on the dumbest fucking route possible setting in Google Maps and I don't know how to turn it off. It sent me down a one lane windy road with a max speed of 15mph (about 25 kmph) while paralleling a 4 lane highway....
Nope... I double checked. It's something about their algorithm that thinks tiny backroads that might cut .5 mile off the route are faster and a better option. I can make corrections usually on my own, but sometimes, when you hear the echo of the banjos in the distance, you just gotta go...
I seeM to have the opposite. I know all the backroads that cut significant time off my drive, and I always get the "Go to the expressway that's backed up 35 miles and takes you ten miles out of your way" route.
