The trick is zooming out to get an overview. In old days we looked at a map and had and overview- I’ll go north a bit and then turn west at a junction or landmark. Now it’s all zoomed in- you go straight for 3 miles and turn right with no idea where you are relative to other things.
Well it’s just normal for me. The UI should allow fixed orientation for what ever direction you want. The rotation is the problem. Nobody would ever rotate a map like that.

Also having everything rotating around the car as you turn makes it very hard to know what you’re doing.
Man I turn that shit off. Makes me dizzy. N is up.
I do the same thing in video games! I HATE when the minimap rotates all over the place - North is up, damnit!
Spoken with true Northern Hemisphere privilege.

People absolutely rotate maps like that.
