Also, I would think that self-driving cars get their directions from GPS applications. If so, good luck with that. My GPS really, really doesn't like the idea driving through a gated road and avoids them at all costs. If I'm coming up Morse from below 466 and wanting to go to Spanish Springs, I know I can just stay on Morse. My GPS insists that I take 466 clear over to 441 then go north and come back west to get to Spanish Springs from the north entrance near the golf cart bridge. Similarly, if I want to visit friends in Fenney, I know enough to get around. My GPS insists that most of the streets down there are actually non-existent. It thinks I'm driving around in fields.

Maybe you need a new GPS or need to update your maps?
I have used Apple maps, Google Maps and Navigon and they all take me down Morse to Spanish Springs from Mallory CC area or Colony. Even the crappy, old & slow Sygic GPS in my Atomic Electric Cart radio goes that way. (I don't use them for directions but for their accurate speedometer). It is possible that on occasion there may be very heavy traffic on Morse north of 466 and it could reroute you but that hasn't happened to me as yet.
