Both take your eyes off the road & contribute to distracted driving & accidents Which is why I put my SatNav on the dash where the speedo would be on most cars, I see it through the wheel. I even fashioned a cowl made of a Magners Cider box to shield it from the sun. My eye falls in one direction. Quicker and natural. But I love perusing maps, and prepare with: Streetmaps.com, bing.com/maps, Goggle Earth and other websites. Particularly if I am going to unfamiliar territory. Like the Bath Academy to see Blowzabella (great night). Familiar but for the last mile. I knew it was down there, and I was increasingly skeptical but patient - and there it was, where the map had said. SatNav not switched on. Brave or what?
