Google Maps shows me ads for restaurants I can't afford. Organic Maps shows me a hiking trail I didn't know existed. Guess which one I opened last

I prefer Google Maps cause they'll tell you where pigs camp out. Saved me a lot of speeding tickets on the interstate.
Comaps can display your current speed and (if it's in the data) the speed limit for the road you're on - everything you need to avoid speeding tickets!
Put this in another comment, but social conventions for driving vary a lot by region... in the US at least. Can't speak for anywhere else. In Chicago, if you're driving the speed limit on an interstate, people just assume you're geriatric or stoned. The flow of traffic is consistently 10-15 over on all Chicago area interstates. Cops do 20 over. But, in the Bay, unimpeded flow tends to rest at 0-5 over.
As someone who isn't a speed demon, I still like the police warnings because it's a timely reminder to check myself. Am I matching the flow of traffic? Do I blend in? Am I making myself a target?
