Driving back from Woking to Gloucester yesterday and the sat nav took me on a horrible windy route up to oxford and then across on A roads. It was doing it for all 3 routes it calculated.
Co pilot on my iphone said I should be going over to swindon on the m4 and up which was 20 minutes shorter but only 3 miles longer. I bet it would be way more economical too as it would be 70 mph all the way.
Really not a fan of its routing!! Anyone else had similar issues?
Sometimes it's great, other times not so good, although it's still better than pulling over to ask for directions
Wasn't happy with its choice of route a few months back though, was in or around the bath area (sort of lost) and it sent me down a narrow road and across a long bridge that was so narrow I had to fully mount the pavement to pass a car coming the other way, finally made it to the other side and turned the corner only to be greeted by some very unfriendly fat woman sitting in the road on a stool, stuffing her face and demanding money for crossing her bridge WTF.
How times have changed, when I was a kid the trolls were always under the bridge
Anyway after that 'what did you do in your leon today' unpleasant experience, I now always double check the route on my phone with what the sat nav suggests before deciding
