pricci··on Google Maps now requires WiFi scanning to use navigation
Can confirm this behavior. While driving home yesterday the usual "enable Google location services" appeared on Google Maps after starting navigation mode, but if I dismissed it, it exited navigation mode.

Note that you will get a better user experience by installing the extension but, if you choose not to, you can set privacy.userContext.enabled to true, privacy.userContext.ui.enabled to true and privacy.userContext.longPressBehavior to 2 in about:config.
