After leaving Faneuil Hall, I tasked both assistants with getting me directions to South Station, then North Station, then Logan Airport where I headed for the Mass Pike. Both did exceptionally well with driving directions for these well-known locales. In general, both assistants are pretty good with driving directions, but a little more hit or miss with less specific queries.
