At one point I cycled through the street where my grandmother (mother's side) used live in a senior apartment, then it send me through the street and past the house where my aunt and uncle (mother's sister) used to live. The I was directed past the street friends used to live in 12 years ago, where I used to house/dog/cat sit. And finally I cycled past the street where not only my sister is currently living, but where my grandmother moved to from her apartment to a care home where she lived until she died.

How can this happen?! It isn't as if I live in a small town. Granted, it's in three neighbourhoods close together, but I didn't look at the map to see where each rout would take me (there were three very different directions), I just chose the longest one.
Is Google remotely involved with that GPS? Or any browser of any kind?
