Are you kidding, on the opposite side of town….geez! I don’t even use maps anymore I simply ask Siri to get me where I want to go…even if you have a route programmed and you want to get off for a meal, pick up the iPhone, ask Siri for the nearest Panera Bread, for instance, and now that route will be used…once you’ve arrived you’ll be taken back to your original route…pretty cool stuff...
So far I’ve never had an experience such as you….thankfully.
