when you drive into Canada, Google Maps changes speed limit signs to match what you see, even though your directions stay in miles since that’s what I’m used to.
But as you get close, it changes to “turn right in 650 meters” and I’m completely dumbfounded.
Like, is 650 a lot of meters? Do I change lanes now? Is the turn 10 seconds away or like a minute away? I have no idea!
