Actually, I don't even understand how that can be, I thought they were accurate to around 30ft? or is it 30m (90ft). Do you think you lost signal in canyons or something like that? Or maybe it just seemed like 500ft?
Get more info before you have second thoughts.

The roads in that area are very twisty. Maybe he was referring to the fact that the spoken directions could not keep up with the twisties. Speed could also be a factor combined with the frequent curves. I don't believe he said the map was inaccurate.

xxxdog56, can you give more info?
