    You have turned on the setting that saves your path as a trail of cookie crumbs. Turn it off and it will stop doing it.

    No Tom, is that not the PacMan mode???

    On mine I enabled it show all Bars as P.O.I's...now it's easy to play "Connect the Dots"

    Tom,
    I'm surprised at you! :nono: It's obvious his Prius has picked up a virus -- MEASLES! (red dots) :sick:

    On the serious side:

    1) :welcome:

    2) If you haven't found out how you turned on the Trace Route bread crumbs:
    This is using MY '07 Camry Hybrid NAV, so YPMV (Your Prius May Vary):
    a) Press: MAP
    b) If the line of options on the bottom of your touch-map is not showing, select " ON >> "
    c) Select MAP VIEW
    d) On ROUTE TRACE, select ON.

    What's really scary is when you look in the rear view mirror and see those red dots on the road behind you. :eek:
