Default Re: Navigation route options - are they as useless as they appear?

Driving out in the regionals, taking the "shortest" or "quickest" route sometimes takes you onto unpaved roads. Depending on the app, it might assume you can go the legal limit on some of those unpaved roads, whereas in fact you can't i.e. massive pot holes everywhere.

Or you might be able to save 2 minutes going on unpaved roads riddled with pot holes, but is it worth it?

Always pays to look carefully on your route if you are doing road trips beyond metro.
