| Description of the problem | The standard navigation system has a design flaw. The tip of the arrow shows you at about 150 to 200 feet further down the road then you actually are. This results in a turn alert sound that typically goes off when you are in the intersection, resulting in a sharp turn. Do to the late sound/alert i, over the past year, have had been almost rear ended 3 times. Normal designs show you where you actually are and the alarm sound to make a turn usually is about 100 feet before the turn. |
