3 Essential Basis To Keep A Map In Your Car by Godspower35(m): 3:54pm On Apr 16, 2019
A road map is a map that essentially displays roads and transport links, not natural geographic information. This is a type of navigation map, which usually includes political boundaries and labels, which also makes it a type of political map. In addition to roads and borders, road maps often include attractions such as large businesses or buildings, tourist sites, parks and entertainment venues, hotels and restaurants, as well as airports and train stations. A road map can also document car-free transit routes, even though they are often only shown on transit cards.

Follow the tips below in-order to understand the reasons for a road map:

1.
Maps allow you to better plan your route.


When you go on a long trip, it’s a good idea to get an idea of ​​the route you choose before you leave. Do not go through landmarks, waterways
or important cities that you cross to find out what you are going through. It is also vital to know on which sections of the road there are recreation areas or restaurants to relax in the bathroom and eat. Maps are ideal for planning, and to get an idea of ​​what to expect during a trip, GPS devices are not so easy to read this way.

GPS in your car or on your phone will show you only a small segment of the route. This will save you from previous knowledge of cities, mountains, ponds, etc., which you can easily recognize from a regular roadmap. How often are we completely taken aback by our GPS simply because we are listening and driving, and not paying attention to the environment? Suddenly, a wildlife sanctuary, which you may have wanted to avoid or do not want to avoid, comes from nowhere.


2.
Maps never lose service.


If you use a navigation application for a smartphone, you risk losing the signal. You depend on your ability to receive cellular services wherever you are, which is not always the case! And, of course, the places where you could lose the GPS satellite signal would be in more distant places where you probably do not know where you are going. If you are thinking of not using cellular communication, you must have a road map at hand. It is therefore best to be careful and keep it in your glove box.

3.
Maps cannot be discharged.


If there is one thing that we are sure of is that electronic devices, such as GPS systems and mobile phones, tend to fail at the worst possible times. Out of nowhere, the battery will die or the screen will freeze. And if you do not have a car charger for your phone or GPS, you really are not lucky!

Now we are not talking to remove your GPS, we only rely on maps. But if you want to be sure to get to your destination as quickly and safely as possible, it is important to be prepared. And this training should include putting the right card in your glove box.

One aside, if one was stopped by police with a paper map in your hand rather than a GPS app on your phone, you are far more likely to get helpful directions as opposed to a ticket for distracted driving.

OP, you praised paper map over phone google map.
Paper map this and that... Then you display an image of a phone using google maps? Are you a somehow person?
Tell us where to buy the updated Nigerian road map. Are you selling it? Do you know where it is sold?

Don't just carry American local news from Reddit or TMZ and post here. Their local news (no mattwr how sweet it is for you), is of no use to us here in Nigeria. Our circumstances, situations, governments, currencies and opportunites are totally different.
