Am I the only one here, who plans before traveling and reads a digital map before driving
Yep
No. I actually prefer getting familiar with the route prior to traveling. Sometimes I'll use turn by turn navigation but for the most part just getting familiar with the route is enough. It's a nice little memory exercise to keep the brain working.
I learn the route for new routes. (Gives me more choice of routes, and an understanding of the area)
I just turn by turn for known routes. (Stops me from always using the same route, defaulting to a non-optimal route, or forgetting about a construction detour)
