Default Hey. guys...a request from an out-of-stater...

Last years maps omitted some pretty significant details on route numbers and road/street names. This year, please....please...make sure the road/street names appear exactly as labeled on the street signs. The one in particular I'm thinking of used a name that the road was known to locals by, but the actual labeled road was something entirely different. I can't remember the street name, but this was VERY confusing to those of us coming from out-of-state. When we inquired, someone said, "Oh, everyone knows that road as such-n-such!" We replied, "Well, WE didn't...!".
So whatever you can do to alleviate this situation would be appreciated.

You should be able to hand the map and directions to a non-local and have them drive the course without making one wrong turn, and without them ever having seen the route before. Several of us wound up driving all the way into Austin before we realized we should have turned off the road in question.

Thanks...I really appreciate your efforts! Looking forward to seeing everyone...!
