That is absolutely false. I didn't even own a car in the 2000s because going anywhere meant a bunch of printed maps, bad GPS, and getting lost. Google Maps liberated me to a whole world of restaurants, side trips, urgent plan changes, and last-minute tourism. Plus podcasts, voice memos, and time sensitive texts. It kills me that safetyism is throwing out all those babies with the bathwater. |

That’s on you. Like almost everyone over the age of 50, I learnt to drive before mobile phones and GPS, and it was fine. Paper maps and street directories worked well enough. Getting lost was uncommon, and no big deal.
