You could always program your nav so that the known ghetto areas are avoided when it calculates its route. I know that our Nav system has a feature where you can mark off certain areas as "designated avoid zones". This, of course, requires you to know ahead of time where the ghetto areas are...which, in all likelyhood, if you knew where they were, your own intelligence and will to survive would cause you as the driver to not follow the plotted route through the ghetto warzone as the Nav system guides you towards it.
But...I do find it strange how the Nav system almost always manages to find the most ghetto areas of town during it's route guidance. I think that it must be the result of a conspiracy that occured in the distant past during the urban planning of our countrys landscape. The gas companies and automotive industry were in cahoots with the people who planned the geographical layout of the American Landscape, and together these two groups of powerful entities came up with the following formula in order to maximize fuel consumption and automobile wear and tear:
"The shortest path between any two destinations must also be the most dangerous path. Thus all ghetto's are located along these venues. The outskirts of all ghetto communities shall be landmarked by a Dairy Queen."
I'm not really sure why Dairy Queen is in the equation(Maybe they were in cahootz too?), but it seems that they strictly adhered to that portion of the formula.
Moral of the story: If you're going to be a slave to technology, you'd better carry a glock in your glove box.
