I had accidentally left the voice on for some reason, back when Google Maps’ navigation was fairly new here in New Zealand. Back then it wasn’t the easiest thing to turn off without pulling over and stabbing a bunch of buttons, so I left it.
Approaching a large intersection, it seemed it was taking the words on the street signs somewhat literally, as it told me
I will always turn off the sound of the GPS when using it, I just want a map to glance at, not a device ordering me around
i just dont like when im in the middle of a conversation and the machine goes “TURN RIGHT”
Exactly
Except sometimes it pays off massively.

Indeed, the sign did appear to read “SH1/2”.
