I used to live in Inman Park and people coming to visit me (mostly from Bham) would ALWAYS get lost.
They would call me and try to describe where they were (which was usually the absolute most dangerous neighborhood in the city) so that I could direct them out of their loop of one way street hell. Many sometimes lost for a hour or more. You also can’t get off an exit in Atlanta and expect to be able to turn around and get back on the interstate. It just doesn’t work that way! I refused to get on 285 EVER. It’s terrifying as no one goes less than 85 and the lanes are extremely narrow. Anyone who lives in Atlanta (intown) knows every back street. My kids went to school down near the airport (they rode MARTA). But, if I had to drive there I always went the back way and never got on I85/75. I will say though, I love Atlanta and would move back in a heartbeat.
