Twice in the past month Google Maps has failed me to point that I have stopped using the service. I was travelling for work (once in Detroit and once in New York) and had printed maps to get to and from my destinations (I don’t have a GPS so this is my best option). In Detroit, I followed the directions to end destination and was baffled when the school I was looking for was nowhere in sight. I ended up stopping at a gas station and asking for directions. I ended up being about five miles from my destination and about ten minutes late for my training, getting the day off on the wrong foot. New York wasn’t quite as disastrous but it still led me astray telling me to follow roads that didn’t exist. It was very frustrating. I have since started using Mapquest for all my map needs. Whether or not it would have made the same mistakes, I don’t know. I’m sure I will give it another shot in the future but it will have to earn my loyalty next time!
