I am trying to get directions to the Office Xmas party and Mapquest is the worst. They are sending me on roads that are no where near the most direct route. I also know mapquest does not update their database and send you in a cirlce sometimes without knowing of new roads that aree built/paved.
Anyone else know a good alternative site to Mapquest?

if you already know all this, then why are you still using it?

The only time Yahoo!Maps has ever given me any trouble is when I used it for directions in Bumblefuck, PA. As far as Jersey goes, it's always worked well for me.

I'm not...my job was using it, but I know how terrible Mapquest is and I would love to find them another online source.

My favorite for directions is AAA's online trip tickets, they've been dead on accurate for me every time I've used them to go somewhere.
