Additional Ideas for Getting Directions

Whenever you're lost, use the Maps program to get your current location so you'll know where you're at and where you need to go. Check out your current location the next time you're riding in a taxi. Turn on your iPhone, look at a map, and you can tell whether the cab driver is taking the shortest route possible or driving you all over town to increase your cab fare.

If you're traveling to an unfamiliar location, check Google Street View to scope out the area. This can help you identify potential parking spots or recognize the building when you get close to it. Using Maps on your iPhone, you should be able to navigate through many new places without getting lost.
