Real Directions, easy-to-understand driving directions that guide like a
friend, using recognizable landmarks, buildings and traffic lights. No
more stress from trying to read street names. Instead, hear clearly
spoken guidance, like “Turn left after the gas station.” The Direct Access feature simplifies navigating to select complex
destinations, like airports and shopping malls, by finding a place
within a larger location. When navigating to the mall,
Direct Access gives additional location information for specific retail
stores inside. For example, "Arriving at Woodfield Mall. Anthropologie
is inside, on the upper level." Direct Access even navigates through
parking lots to find the entrance nearest your destination. Active Lane Guidance with voice prompts prepares you to drive through
an exit or interchange with confidence. As you approach, an animated
model uses brightly colored arrows to indicate the proper lane needed
for your route; a friendly voice offers additional help. Bird’s Eye

from overhead. photoReal Junction View realistically displays junctions
