I'm relatively new at driving, a couple of months now. The only issue I have is navigation and I have not seen it addressed, so I think I'm making too big a deal of it. For instance, driving for Lyft last night, I accepted a rider and followed navigation which I could tell was near the local mall. As I approached the mall, the navigation map gave me the address of the mall, yet it showed the rider at a sporting goods store across the street from the mall with a totally different address. The mall has several entrances, so I circled around to where it actually showed the rider in front of the sporting goods store, no one was there. As I drove into the parking lot, the app said "You have arrived". Great. I called the rider, no answer. I drove to closest mall entrance and waited, nothing. I drove back to the sporting goods store and only one person was outside. It was a guy and the person I was to pick up was a woman, but I asked the guy if he was waiting for a Lyft and he said no. This is totally ridiculous, so I canceled the ride. There have been several instances like this lately, one being that the Uber app kept telling me to drive the wrong way down a one way street. My full time job keeps me in my house all day, every day and so I do enjoy driving, but this navigation situation has me thinking that it's simply not worth it. Any suggestions???
