    Bro. That last part would have me livid. I can feel my blood boiling from that. I have made trips across states with only enough money for gas to get where I needed to be…if Google had did something like that to me during those times I’d be fucked without a paddle.

      I had it happen this weekend. Put in an address for an estate sale about 20 minutes away and it decided to give me directions to an address 20 hours away.

      Yeah, I figured I’d get half way home, take a nap for a few hours and finish in the morning. Instead, I just took a nap, and did pretty much the entire trip in one shot.

      It also meant that I hit a bad accident that caused about a 2 hour slow down, that I would have missed if I had been correctly navigated the night before. So my 5 hour trip ended up taking about 10 hours. Pissed me off for the entire trip.
