      Construction and traffic.

      Some locales completely mismanage lane closure schedules, and for some reason 90% of people forget how driving works the moment the road is slightly moist.

      I live in a big city that has unpredictable traffic and construction everyday, where a 5 minute difference in departure time can exponentially increase your travel time. I have at least 3 primary routes to get home, and navigation helps me pick the best route at the time I leave. It will also suggest detours if it finds a faster way enroute.

      My spouse does the same (and I would also do, but I am a diehard bicyclist…).

      The city’s unpredictable road repair schedules and other unforeseen circumstances (e.g. we recently were led around a huge area because they were defusing another bomb), makes always activating navigation the sensible choice.
