Are you
seriously suggesting that most people don't know which compass direction a
road lies along?

I would agree with that, I have a GPS in the car and having driven
around a strange town it is often quite surprising to find the direction
I'm heading is nothing like the one I thought I was. With roundabouts
and subtle bends in the road it is well high impossible to keep track of
compass directions.
