Did you do that? I would be keen to try a version because I notice on
my first few trips with the Nuvi that sometimes it says "keep
right/left" when it should say "turn right/left". I think that is
because the way looks like this:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
               C
               C
               C
               C

When it should look like this:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
               C
               C
               C
               C

i.e. A and B are really the same road as far as routing is concerned.
It would be good to have an option to merge those ways.

Cheers,

Mark
