Google has sent me through toll roads multiple times with avoid toll roads enabled.
I have a cheap iphone just for apple maps which hasn't fucked me over ... yet
I am always an "avoid tolls" kind of person. I use Google maps a lot and have never had an issue with this.
But just the other week, I was coming back from a road trip and it kept trying to make me use a rolled expressway!! Wtf!! I even triple checked my settings. I don't understand wtf is up with that
Just avoid Australia, you'll be fine.
~~But Doctor, I Am Pagliacci~~ despite living here believe me I try
Every time I navigate with Google maps somewhere while someone else going to the same location uses apple maps, they have trouble and I have none whatsoever. It's pretty consistently that way
