Yesterday I from ipoh heading to colmar tropicale use gps also it used some god forsaken road dunno where (yes, MFM map), but still I finally reach my destination without driving into the sea :ko: panicked a bit when it told us to use a road that is full of construction going on..

It asked me to exit at Lembah Beringin, go up genting, go down then baru enter Karak Highway..

ya betul kata alharis299 tu, gps hanyalah sebagai panduan sahaja, semua jalan raya dan laluan akan mengalami perubahan dari semasa ke semasa, sebagai contoh Jalan Tutup, Jalan rosak, lencongan jalan dan lain-lain. oleh itu tanggungjawab kita sebagai pengguna setia Peta MFM ialah memberikan maklumbalas samada dalam bentuk sumbangan track, poi dan lain-lain maklumbalas untuk membantu Mapper memperbetulkan laluan jalanraya berkenaan diatas peta MFM dan dengan cara ini dapat membantu ahli-ahli lain mendapat maklumat berguna sebelum memulakan perjalanan. =D> :rox:

Jalan Brickfields, KL macam tu juga. Sekejap one-way, sekejap 2-way. Baru-baru ni saya nampak kereta silap masuk ke jalan one-way dan terus langgar divider. Mungkin dia tidak kemaskini map kot sebab jalan tu dahulunya sememang dua hala.

agree...
with this condition,

i propose to added in our EULA,
how if every mfm's map users would got some notice from us
to remind them if found some map error in routing, wrong poi, new road & lane, etc
then they very "recomended" and or "mandatory :mrgreen: " to notify us.
the eula contains how to contribute to mfm by taught them how to record their track and send to mfm.
it's not as a consequence get free map, but as social responsibility to all other map & road users 8-) .

...maybe the -m'force'm- will be with you, always.. :peace:
