Maps or GPS: Which one do you prefer?

Geographically speaking, I terrible (you better never have to get lost with me, haha ). However, in the last case I still get better results with GPS than with a map. Make your choice and tell my why.

How can you stop and ask people on a major highway especially if you are traveling from the south to the north or the east to the west.

@ramapo17 I cannot travel with my mobility scooter on any highway. I travel on roads and streets and stop people and ask them for directions if not sure.

@Hannihar Okay, now I understand. You are not driving a car.

GPS without a second thought! Maps are confusing for me.

The GPS is much easier if I am driving as I cannot look down when I am driving. The GPS also will give up to date issues going on with the roads if there is construction or an emergency.

If you are driving you can't use a map because you have to keep your eyes on the road. Better to use a GPS or the MAPS app on the phone. More convenient and safer. Plus you know exactly when to make a turn or get off the road without having to stare at the screen since the voice will tell you that.

A map I can hold in my hand. Who can trust a GPS is always right or will function. A map cannot conk out like tech devices always do.

I would trust a GPS first choice, but we don't have one. We most generally use a map, but some roads have already been changed!
