Just SW of Towcester is a "no name" road between Whitttlebury (A413) and Heathencote on the A5.
The 'no name' road is referred to incorrectly as the A5 when you follow the voice prompts. A little confusing when you hear ....
"... turn right on the A5" when in fact you are turning onto a small no name road just after leaving Whittlebury. At Heathencote the voice prompt says "continue on the A5 as it bears right". Nah! Turn right on the A5, the big road you were probably looking for.
No problem if you know the area, but that's not the point is it! |

Which one, TeleAtlas or Navteq? Which product are you using? Oops, I see it's CoPilot. Does that use Navteq data? _________________ Tim |

OK, it's now moved to Navteq. Can you supply coordinates for each end of the road, please, in decimal degrees format? _________________ Tim |
