Often, I will drive to a hike where I need detailed navigation as I get outside my comfort zone, but I am completely familiar with the highways near me. It would be so much clearer if it just said "take I-270 south in half a mile" instead of, "Using exit 272, use the second from the right lane to take I-270 south, I-270 North, then stay left at the fork to take I-270 south." I know how to get on I-270 south, all you need to do is tell me that is where I am going, not the minutia on how to do it.
I can see how the latter is useful for someone passing through, but google maps knows I've been through that intersection hundreds of times. It's really distracting and counterproductive for me. I wish there was some "give short instructions in my area" type setting that would simplify instructions in this case.
