Ok so the road routing may not be great but I did not even consider using it in the car when I ordered it. However ... ...although It does lack features of a dedicated sat nav. It is waterproof so ideal for outdoor use, this is especially handy on the bike. It doesn't float but I don't intend on riding through anything that deep!!
