Why Do Drivers Need Mapquest Driving Directions?

By John Flint


Mapquest provides super accurate driving directions, I have visited many web mapping sites to get directions, but MQ and Google Maps have handed out the most accurate directions without any doubt. Even though G Maps and AOL's online mapping service are my favorite, there are other web mapping sites that are worth checking out, sites that I also recommend, those sites are Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps, and Rand McNally, Yahoo maps provides probably the best live traffic report on the internet, and Bing maps provides 3d maps through your web browser.

MQ is one of the oldest online mapping websites, it was launched more than fifteen years ago, since then it has been helping drivers everywhere find their destination in a quicker and easier way. To get directions simply visit mapquest.com, click on get directions, enter your locations, starting address in "A", ending address in "B", click on get directions or hit enter, and that's it, the route planner will immediately plot the best route to help you get to where you are going in less time, and with less traffic of course.

I'm a driver, I have to drive all day long every single day, I do not drive only because it is my obligation, I also drive because I love it, after all driving is my favorite hobby. There are a couple of things that I do not like about driving cars, I do not enjoy driving through routes with a lot of traffic, and I don't like to encounter closed roads, that is the main reason why I love this web mapping service, it allows me to avoid traffic, and it also allows me to avoid closed roads, there are other reasons why I love AOL's internet mapping website, this online mapping service also allows me to save a lot of time and money as well.

All drivers should utilize this web mapping service to get directions to find their destination in an easier manner, as mentioned earlier this is one of the most accurate free driving directions providers in the world, believe me, I have tried many online mapping softwares, and very few deliver what AOL's online mapping software delivers. AOL's route builder is also an excellent tool for road trip planning, this route builder allows users to add up to 26 stops to each route that they create, that means that you do not have to constantly visit the site every time that you need a new route, all you have to do is create one big route with all the stops on it.

An interesting feature that this web mapping service has is that now you don't have to print maps and directions if you don't want to, because now you can send directions and maps directly to your mobile device, to your vehicle, you can send them through email, you can share them through social media sites, or you can access them through any mobile device that allows you to browse the internet. Map Quest has a very cool free app that's known as "M4M", MQ for mobile is the only mobile mapping and routing app that offers Skyhook technology, Skyhook tech allows users to access navigational data in places where it wasn't possible a couple of years ago, now you can get instructions when you are driving through tunnels or through areas that have very tall buildings.
