Head South East on blar blar road. I don't frigging know which way South East is - I forgot my trusty compass. The only place I'd know that for would be a place I knew really well and if I was there I wouldn't need Google Maps in the blinking first place. AIBU or is Google maps just shit?

Not The Sun, but the sun. The big yellow round thing in the sky, not the newspaper.

I can’t remember the last time I saw this

I find it amazing that people don't know the rough direction they're travelling in, but I appreciate I'm very much in the minority 🤣

I've never seen this option on Google Maps on my phone.

I didn't know there was any other option but this on the phone to be honest.

Don't bother with Waze, it's rubbish.

Love Waze, saved me getting stuck on the M42 a few months ago

Always found Google maps to be much better. It's a sample of few though.

Anecdata only but I did a journey at the weekend and compared both, Waze saved me 5 minutes by showing a way to avoid some roadworks, Google maps just showed me the 5 minute delay
