First, the cabbie might take a route that is different than what your GPS has
specified. That doesn't necessarily mean he is taking you on a longer route.
For example, there might be four other cross streets that get you to your
destination street.
But, if you have an idea about where he is going, say by putting in your
deswtination, you can see if he is getting closer to the destination. You can
of course, periodically look for upcoming intersections with X or you can turn
on lookaround with chord m. The thing I don't like about look around for
intersections is that it only announces an intersection when you turn or come
to a stop. That's why I usually use repeat mode with X or just periodically
press X when I'm on a bus.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] ot a quick dumb question: sorry: new at this:
When I'm riding along with a cab driver and I am in gps live, how
will I know if he has taken a wrong turn what will happen will
the gps tell me if we have varied from the route I have loaded?
May sound dumb, but maybe not. I have not had this happen yet,
but we have a lot of foreign cab drivers here. Thanks. Karen
