Mate we used to navigate from large physical atlases. I remember having to pull out the state atlas and find page for the county we were in and then route a path and navigate my mom to our destination when I when I was like 12.
It wasn't better but I kinda miss it.
We drive across the country every summer to visit family. Growing up, my parents used to talk about different routes and which one felt faster. Like "you can get off the interstate and take this county road and shave some time off." But then they'd argue about if it was worth taking a road with a lower speed limit even if it was less distance.
Eventually they tried to impart that wisdom to me and would ask "so which route are you taking?" It took years for them to finally grasp that I just go whatever the way the GPS tells me is faster.
