An automotive navigation system is like a map that is built into your car. It helps you to get from one place to another. It uses satellite signals to pinpoint your exact location and then you can enter where you want to go. The navigation system will show you the best route to get there. It also tells you how far you have travelled and how long it will take you to get there. It can even tell you which streets to take and which roads to avoid to get to your destination.
