[NAGDU] AIRA and getting around

I've been using AIRA in a way I don't hear other people say, so I thought
I'd mention it. 

I get them to use Google Earth or Google Maps and tell me things like, on
this busy street in my town, which cross-streets have traffic lights?  Or,
exactly where is this address?  What side of the street is it on?  

I have a couple GPS apps, but neither of them tell me something like this.
I guess they assume I'll see the place I want to go across the street.  And
I've had GPS tell me to cross a busy street where there is no light.  Easy
enough to do in a car; fatal otherwise.  

I can find out stuff before I even leave the house and make a good route
plan.  Quite handy.  

 

I have the 30-minute package, but, with the free 5 minutes every day, it's
plenty for me.
