Street navigation is the best thing about phones and gps.

I can remember being in an unfamiliar town having to buy a street map at a gas station and making calls from a pay phone for directions.

If you were from out of town it was a PITA.

Waze is the single greatest app ever created for this reason right here. Turn-by-turn navigation and intelligent routing to identify traffic backups and send you around them.
