No doubt the same cranky old man who was in front of me on the 101 heading back to LA from Oxnard last night. 58mph in the number one lane, and nothing but a sea of empty road in front of him and the rest of the rolling blockade. Rather than let him raise my blood pressure, I ducked off the freeway in Thousand Oaks and hunted down some coffee.

Description: current location is parking lot for destination. park here every day and directions never update


I wonder why it never updates? Oh yeah, you didn't change anything! I would love to be able to tell him how to make a map point destination.

I'm half tempted to authorize this one as the only Red Light Camera in the state. :lol:

The lake is a man made freshwater lake made by walling off part of the Great Salt Lake. A decent place for boating and fishing.

Does that mean the camera will take a photo of every fish caught?

Sounds like his GPS is acting up.
I have seen mine occasionally 'mis-locate' me and then try to route me via roads that it thought I must be following. It left 'strange' tracks on my trip record for the evening.

I turned WAZE off and restarted it and it picked up my correct location.

I wonder how many of the user complaints we get are due to similar mis-locations.
