    My wife will do this when driving. She will drive the complete opposite direction from where we need to go and if I dare ask “Why are we driving AWAY from x?” she gets mad at me for pointing it out.

      I had a school kid who only knew how to get home by following the bus route. Maybe it’s like that.

      Distance travelled is not the only metric by which you can judge a route. Others include:

      • Traffic
      • Traffic lights or other stops, since it’s nicer to drive uninterrupted.
      • What turns you need to make (2 left turns over 6 lanes of traffic? Pass)
      • Familiarity
      • Road condition
      • The view
