10mph over the speed limit for 12 hours does make up for 2 hours if mapquest goes by a 60mph spped limit.

Mapquest sent me down streets that didn't exist, were one-way (the WRONG way), and all kinds of other bullsh|t lies. Mapquest BLOWS. I've had similar problems with yahoomaps, but not NEARLY as much --like, not EVERY SINGLE TRIP. :| Mapquest, suck my balls!

You went faster than mapquest calculated was legal, go you! Who woulda gotten owned if you got a ticket (not that 10 over warrants it;)

A few weeks ago I drove from Hartford Connecticut to New Castle Pennsylvania in 5 1/2 hours. That is an AVERAGE 88 mph speed, not top, but AVERAGE. 95+ MPH cruise control set the whole way, only stopping for gas and excessive liquid removal.

I agree. Directions are always out of order for me.

This is why I use map point.....you can tell it to account for rest stops and a speed that you set.

Once I was driving to my friends house in Carmer, NY, blindly following mapquest directions. I realized somethign was wrong when I found myself on some kind of unpaved road in the middle of a forrest with no signs of civilization.
