If I choose to drive on anything except the freeway, I get told the road is closed, drive it anyway (the road is, after all, not closed) and spend the entire journey with a mapless screen. Great 4G+ reception the whole way. Happens all over NSW. Weird.

In newcastle I have generally found Google Maps innaccurate at best, adding massive legs to short trips at worst. Apple maps hasn't sent me on doglegs yet in Newie.

Rurally, they're both bad, but useable. But over the last year they have both got a lot worse.

I miss my NSW UBD paper book, frankly.
