    Destination Arrival side...

    Question for the Experts...

    Talking to a (truck) Delivery driver commenting on how annoying his GPs. could be, being no facility to 'Arrive'. with the destination on his LEFT. . The nature of his work means routing done just before /on leaving depot, so no time to double-check with the paper. model 'GPS'

    Does anyone know of any that offer this option ?

    I’m confused. What does the reference to “LEFT” mean?

    My Garmin shows expected arrival time. My L322 used to but after the GPS date issue a couple of years back (something like the Y2K issue), it no longer does so.

    Are you talking about routing to arrive without having to do a U-turn when you get there? I know my Tom Tom does this correctly - experienced it recently in Brisbane wherethe desstination was on a main road; it took us past the destination, left turn up a side road, two blocks up it, then u-turn on a roundabout, and back to the main road, right turn at lights, and arrive on the correct side.

    What about those “truck” GPS units that handle this problem and avoid low bridges, etc.?
