What I found with Google Maps is they are technicially right but physically confusing.

For example in Fairplay SC (And about 1/2 mile from where I'm parked in GA) there are roads that make a half right turn.. If you go STRAIGHT you change roads and get to where you are going.. As you approach the interseciton Google Maps says "Turn left" WHich i9s TECHNICALLY what you are doing since you are changing roads.

But if you turn left in SC you go through a fence, and here, a ditch and forest beyond, Neither is designed for vehicle traffic. So you have to understand how computers think. OR rather do not think.
