Bon Jour!
I tried to use your web site to get an itinerary from my cousin's home in
Hemer, Germany to his vacation home in Obermaiselstein, Germany and was
annoyed to find the information came up in MILES!
Why would anyone driving in Germany want or need the information in miles?
The road signs in Germany are in kilometres and the instruments on the
dashboard of the rental car provide distances in kilometres and speeds in
kiometres per hour. How can I use a set of directions in miles when all the
information I see while on the trip is in kilometres?
I did belatedly find that I could click on a special button to get the
information in kilometres, but why should I have to waste my time doing this
extra step?
I don't understand why you degrade the quality and usefulness your otherwise
fine and useful web site by providing information in outmoded Olde English
measures.
