You believe it's not practical to navigate without a GPS?

Watch an old movie-- like the Graduate, or the funny comedy it's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad world, people had maps and asked for directions at gas stations.

There used to be a whole trope of men (especially) not wanting to stop and ask for directions. I'm sure there are younger people who would watch a movie or a TV show where this happens and go "Huh????"

There are also any number of plot points that revolve around not being able to reach someone that also wouldn't make a lot of sense in general today.
