When my TomTom starts actually providing correct information then perhaps they
can start to complain, but many routes I follow using TomTom I have to KNOW when
to ignore what it's telling me! I've given up bothering to flag the problems,
but if I HAD an OSM map on the device then I would get back to fixing the errors!
