See, this is what is wrong with the pace of modern life. Everyone is missing out on stopping in lay-bys. Used to be an essential part of family holidays. Fantastic. You can even have a picnic.”
Why get so down on satnav? It's just another aid to help you on your journey.
When I went on the M4 recently, there was an accident beyond J13. I simply pressed "avoid roadblock 1 mile ahead" and my Tomtom gave me an instant result for an alternative route, taking me round the accident and back on at J14.
And all that while still driving.
Wouldn't be able to do that on the motorway, "reading a map". Can't stop on the hard shoulder to find an alterntive route can you?
And to the OP. I recommend TomTom.
