  • Then there's the nearest intersection to where I live, which was a five-pointed star shape until five years ago, when it was converted into a normal four-way intersection. BMW's map software doesn't know that.
  • It thinks that there are toll roads in Connecticut. In 1988, CT passed legislation banning all toll roads. But the BMW map software still thinks they are toll roads.
And what's up with marking every cemetery as a public park?

And I bet ten bucks that these problems will still be there if I pay for the upgrade. The software is good, but the maps are like 25 years out of date.

NOTICE: All BMW owners living in/passing through CT, send all tolls to me and I will make sure they are delivered to the proper authority.
