No need to try a demo. I use this route twice a week.
The suggestion for a short Demo with the Google coordinates I gave was to see if you can observe something obviously wrong or why TomTom wants to use the long route around.
Also, have a look at the instructions, there should only be a few.
But when I edit the map in TomTom, the arrows are there.
I was referring to Google's white, temporary arrows on the road that make for the increment with which the next photo was taken.
At the URL I gave, Googles Street view ONLY allows to go to the left. When you drag the Street View man over the map, line to the right for the north bound turn does not exists. That is why there are no white arrows to the right.
I find it odd but this should not affect this problem as the path drawn by Google clearly make the short turn to destination.
I planned the same route at routes.tomtom.com. Although the route arrows are not shown there either, it takes the correct and shorter way.
By the way, can I put the images in body of the text or only links are permitted?
Confirmed that TomTom Route Planner takes the shortest route.
This leads me to believe that maybe MapShares are involved.
Do you accept MapShares from anybody? Not just TomTom trusted ones?
To insert images.
You must have typed anything in the composition window. A single . (dot) will do, not just quoted text.
You now must "
Preview Post".
You then must go to the very bottom of the TomTomForum Window (scroll bar).
Under the blue heading of
Additional Options you see
Manage Attachments.
Click on that and follow the instructions.
