It can be. . .but I've had a couple of issues with mapquest. Sometimes it will forego the quickest route to give you a route based on major highways. A couple of times, it's been dead wrong. Once I was going to a movie with my wife and I used mapquest to locate the theater (in the Denver area). I followed the directions exactly, and it put me in a little residential neighborhood in a cul-de-sac nowhere near the theater. I was ready to knock on somebody's door and ask if Highlander: Endgame was playing in their basement.
