Annoiance with Streets adn Trips

[Wind_Danzer]

Ok, tryign to plot out something and I want to avoid the highways but when I try to in two locations, it kicks me on one even if I'm using the pushpins...

Can someone help me out.

[Wind_Danzer]

Ok, got it... boy is this program touchy...

[TObject]

I thought you said, Streeps and Treets was the best thing since sliced bred. Or have the tomatoes gotten spoiled already?

[Wind_Danzer]

I hate tomatoes.

It is a great program... I just found out how much of a PITA avoiding highways are when trying to get around city streets...

Plus the directions are rediculous to anyone that doesn't know the area.... see below.

Ideas on how to limit the use of Pushpins on city streets and points where you have to turn and want the road to follow and not follow a parrell track?

Aha! Here is the problem. I am sure it should be 31 yards, not 32!!!
