How long before they start directing drivers through ''da hood'' to be more inclusive. Lol, you're trying to get to your cousins potluck and suddenly your hubcaps are gone.

Anyone remember the "Avoid Getto" option Microsoft created? The reverse of this actually happened when Microsoft created a maping and navigating software. https://www.npr.org/2012/01/25/145337346/this-app-was-made-for-walking-but-is-it-racist

For the longest time Google would try to send people through a friend's parent's cow pasture to get to an interstate. Idiots were so intent of following theGoogs orders that they'd get out, unhitch the gate and start driving through their herd of mildly annoyed cows.
Eventually they'd figure out that they had to leave the same way they came in.

I love how there's no middle ground either. They treat they $5 toll bridge saving you an hour the same as that $35 toll road saving you 12 minutes.

"actually pull out a map to look at your area" LOL how many of those people could even read a map or use a compass to orient themselves. Plus good luck finding hard maps in the future as demand is pretty much non existent

At least there would be fewer idiots.
