Maps thinks it's fine to do a u-turn on the Sydney harbour bridge.

Maps straight up can't navigate sanely in Australia I've found.

I've switched to OsmAnd for driving because it'll give a sensible main road following route.

Google Maps reliably sends me down residential roads and adds a whole bunch of turns and then winds up with idiot ideas like "turn right into this two way 4 lane road we tried to slightly avoid".

I wonder if it ever does that for the SF Bay Bridge.

"Perform Immelmann turn in 200 feet"

Is this like a platform 9 3/4 thing?
