2018 SeL with Amundsen (SD card type) navigation. 

 

I find the satnav routing very frustrating. 

I find the three choices impossible to get my mind around. Zooming in to make a reasoned choice is difficult.

Restricting the route choice to one seems to be based on pot luck.

Too many times it just takes me direct through towns or cities.

All I want is to set up the system for the quickest route not the most direct.

 

Examples:  Travelling to a destination on the outskirts of Norwich, on a Sunday, I saw the delights of Carrow Road whereas the A47 would have been much better.

                     Yesterday, on another trip I was taken through the centre of Oxford in the rush hour.

 

My 15 year old Garmin Zumo 550 on its original mapping does better.

 

Any pointers or tips for my old brain to grasp would be most welcome.

The route choices are…

Green   = most economical route

Red       = fastest route

Orange = shortest route
