Comment on A rant about an experience I had with Google maps today.
Showroom7561@lemmy.ca 5 months agoNope. Absolutely not, since highways were 90% of that trip. It did this like halfway through, for no reason that I could think of. No traffic. No accidents up a head. It quite literally had me get off the highway, and reenter at the same interchange!
The only options I would have enabled would have been “avoid tolls” and “avoid ferries”. Neither of which applied for this

It may have thought you were taking the off ramp (GPS wobble) and rerouted on the fly.
Google maps has burned me so often, I now have a pre trip checklist for new routes. Check traffic along the entire route, the approximate on-ramp/exit #s I’ll take, and a quick look at streets around the destination.
They’ve enshittified the service so much I am just learning “normal” navigation now??? FFS.
