There is a question, in the past, when the society was not developed, there were no smartphones, there was no navigation, how did everyone know the road when driving, and how did they know the road if they went to an unfamiliar place?
To be honest, I really admire the people at that time, they wouldn't go the wrong way without navigation, unlike now, when there is navigation, sometimes they will go wrong [cover their face]

I still don't understand, for example, at that time, it was not difficult to drive to Beijing, there was a map, just take the national highway, if I arrived in Beijing, I would go to a very remote place, for example, how to find a small town?
In the past, it was all about holding a national atlas and mouth, and asking questions when I encountered an intersection.
Say a funny thing, about ten years ago in a place in Shanxi, at 7 o'clock in the evening there was no one on the road, ran for a while and finally saw a cyclist and quickly caught up, stopped the car I got out of the car, ready to ask the way.
The moment I got out of the car and walked towards him, the man saw me get out of the car and throw my bike and turn around and run, leaving me alone on the road in embarrassment
At that time there were atlases with the road network of each city
In those years, the development was slow, the speed of urban planning and road construction was not fast, the publication of the atlas could keep up, and the wrong one would not deduct points, and there was no worry about the prohibition of turning left and running the red light in reverse.
At that time, the driver was powerful, and he was able to drive for the leader, and the driver knew where the leader went
In those days, I basically relied on maps and road signs, and no matter where I went, there were signs along the way, and I couldn't go wrong by looking at the signs.
In those days, the roads were not as complicated as they are now, there were fewer cars, and there were no private cars. I often follow the car home, from Shanghai to home, and it is always at night, sitting in the car, I know where I am by feeling.
In the past, the second bridge in Nanjing was full of signs carrying signs and pointing the way
There is a huge traffic road map on the wall of the convoy, and the highway and bridges are clearly marked, so you should study the route carefully before going out for a long distance.
I'll go and buy a map there, a map of a city, and then a provincial road map, a national map, travel around, basically don't get lost
In 05, I drove to more than a dozen provinces and regions to run business, and I looked at the national traffic map and looked at the road signs, although I took a lot of detours, but I could drive safely. For a long time, now I have developed the habit of going to a certain area, first looking at the map, knowing the general direction, combining the road signs while driving, not opening the navigation, and driving directly to the destination.
In the past, the old man liked to say: the foot is the country, the mouth is the road. It means asking people if you don't know how to get around. It's definitely outdated now, and as long as there is navigation, you are not afraid of getting lost.
Mainly relying on a map of China, there were not many roads in those days, there were several main national highways, and they would not change for many years, so it was relatively easy to identify.
