Put that smart phone down for a second and think about what life was like without Google Maps over 18 years ago. If we didn't have Google Maps or anything even remotely similar to this, could you honestly tell me where you're going?... You have no clue, do you?
Look, if you were born in the 90s and up, then you probably didn't have to get accustomed to this because you had iPhones and android phones with Google Maps at your disposal when it was time for you to learn how to drive. Even though Google Maps was released in 2005, if you were 16 before, or around that time, then you had no choice but to use an OLD SCHOOL MAP.
Before 2005, you had to use those old school, paper maps to find your destination. Personally, I'm so glad I didn't have to use these because it would probably take me forever, not to mention people were using compasses as well. Unless you're giving me a map to find buried treasure, then just let me use Google Maps, instead.
Just imagine not having Google Maps, then having to pullover on the side of the road to figure out where you're going. We truly don't realize how blessed we are to have Google Maps and smart phones because otherwise I bet a lot of you would be stranded in the middle of nowhere, out in the desert.
