suggested directions. Any navigation features are provided only as an aid.

so would result in an unsafe or illegal maneuver, if you would be placed in
an unsafe situation, or if you would be directed into an area that you
consider unsafe. Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because
of errors, changes in roads, traffic conditions or driving conditions.
