I sometimes think about the time I was on a road trip with a friend, and for what was generally a 3 hour trip to the mountain, was 5 hours for my friend driving.

Midway through the trip I was suspicious of the duration, traffic was fine. He was adamant he knew where he was going.

I pulled up google maps, and sure enough. 3 hours.

Turns out, his mapping app wasn’t aware of an offramp, so instead it wanted us to drive an extra hour, then do a u-turn and drive back to take an offramp.

He was blindly using Apple Maps
