    Yes, using a GPS with road map software while driving
    really shows up the limitations. Sometimes it thinks
    I'm driving along happily beside the road rather than
    on it. Of course the maps themselves may not be
    correct either, and then the errors can be compounded.
     But most of the time it is right on.
