Beware the dirt road

Categories
Lifestyle

Over 100 drivers heading to the Denver International Airport said they were diverted by Google Maps last Sunday due to a crash on major road.

 

These drivers were led down a dirt road that soon turned muddy due to recent rains and vehicles ended up stuck with about 100 cars lined up behind them.

 

Google responded stating "We encourage all drivers to follow local laws, stay attentive, and use their best judgment while driving."

 

Use their best judgement...mmm....haven't seen many drivers with that.

Waze
But when routes really unknown i often view an area map.
I prefer to understand diversionary paths.

I print directions and use Waze while my car’s navigation is on as well. I like to be prepared but have still been sent on bizarre trips.

Liberal biased drivers got a different route taking them on a direct uninhibited route . Republicans got the uninhabited muddy route . Google responded by saying that they believe in diversity of routes and that the choices were random .

It was the independents that crashed causing all of them to be diverted...
