> Would help to relax if it was just "stay on [major road] for next 20 miles" instead of constant false indicators of a turn coming up.

I hate this so much, and they all do it (I guess not Apple, interesting...). I live on the West coast, US, so road trips for me are often 100s of miles on I5. But instead of knowing that I have 337 miles left on this highway, I instead know that it's 3.2 miles until the next time I'll not be exiting the freeway.

And then, for all the chatiness… when you finally _do_ need to exit… half the time it tells me to exit in 15 miles then says nothing for 23 more exits until it says “take the exit” as I’m passing the gore and have missed my exit.

I’d rather it “stay on this road for 20 miles” then start giving me “exit in 1mi”, “exit in 1/4 mile”, “you’ve passed the last exit, next exit is yours!”.

My pet peeve is when I'm in an unfamiliar area but know my exit is coming in a mile or two it will keep reminding me to not be in the rightmost lane, then 1/4 mile or less from my exit it will suddenly tell me GET RIGHT AND EXIT NOW! In moderately heavy traffic, that's not always easy to do. There was no reason I couldn't have been in that lane earlier.

Yes!!! Why won't it just tell me what my exit is? I don't care if it's 100 miles away, just tell me what it is now so I can be sure I don't miss it. Messages like "continue for 10 miles" covey absolutely no useful information because I'm not going to count out ten miles.

> taking small side roads to a left turn onto a busy road with poor visibility and no light rather than right turns to the main road and signaled lefts

My current theory is that this is an artifact of the eco-friendly route option. I think it avoids lights if there's otherwise no significant difference in predicted arrival. It can be extremely frustrating because it seems to dump me making a left turn onto busy roads when there's a light one block down. I know I end up spending more time trying to make that turn.

Yes please. Or when I'm driving and there are roundabouts where I'm just going straight through. Just tell me my final turn, I k is how these roundabouts work.
