For instance the only way to turn West onto 62 from east side is Delta Waters or Poplar.  There are solid island barriers that keep you from getting onto the hwy otherwise. And not just 62, all over. Every natural point of access is cut off and you have to do some kind of fancy dance and know EXACTLY where to go in order to get in or out.  For instance the MOD pizza over by the South Fred Meyers.  I was supposed to meet someone there, but wasn't exactly sure where it was.  I drove right by it. And by then it was so complicated to get back to it, I just said "Screw it" and drove on home.  Or the other day on 62 I wanted to go to lunch with my visiting son with at the Regency.  Now, I never go there, so I didn't really know where the entrance was. Well, don't miss it or you have to do a big loop to come back to it and get in.  It's just over the top fussy to get in and out of places.

GPS?

Nope. Probably end up on Bear Camp Road in January. Then we'd have one less on RVF.   Sad

Well in town the GPS works great for me.
 Ridiculous.  GPS is one thing.   But GPS doesn't always tell you exactly how to get into a business.  It just says "You have arrived at your destination" but the entrance may not be clear. Or sometimes there's actually a barrier between myself and the entrance, so, "You have arrived at your destination" or "Your destination is on the left" may not be helpful. I might see the place I was going to and but missed the ONE access and there it goes...I'm in heavy, quick moving traffic and I missed it as with MOD pizza . That's exactly what happened.  Oh, there it is! Oh, wait, now it's back there because I didn't see this hidden entrance. Now I have to do all sorts of maneuvering to just get back to the one point where I can get in. Getting to the address does not always get me into the business. I have had that happen numerous times.

I get all that. But still if you are driving and you have an address in your GPS and it says turn at the next intersection 400 feet how can that not help?

I don't know, I just don't seem to have these problems with that area . I go to Fred Meyer,I know exactly how  to get to Rogue Regency, Withams,Guitar center. Bullock rd etc. If I go to the east side I use Owen rd to Delta waters
I have missed a turn and had to go a long way to get turned around but Hopefully I learned my lesson.

I think it's just a matter of time until you get used to all of this.
