I've said the same thing many times here before. The relevant other forums have complained for years about not being able to keep a modified map or have an simple option. It would not be politically correct to have a safe neighborhood option. I recall in Memphis for some gun thing, a group of us went to a renown BBQ place. The app took us there on the free way close to the restaurant. Given the way the exits were arranged, it was asked to take us back to the nice hotel. Wanted to go right through the middle of what we were told to avoid. Even though it would have been a van full of trained and armed, the driver and others fought to get the app to get us back to the highway.
The app got me totally lost in VT. Stopped at a tourist site with a paper map to figure it. I always have such in the car.
