Typical GPS Accuracy?

Plus or minus how many feet while moving at highway speed?

I checked mine today and when moving at highway speed, it ranged between 40-50 feet at one point. When I was on a tollway, so my speed was constant, it lowered to about 35 feet error rate.

Has anybody had the issue of it re routing itself after you cross an intersection?

I have that issue - sort of. I often get it when I'm stopped at an intersection waiting to turn and it thinks I've gone straight so it recalculates to give me alternate directions and then when I turn it recalculates back to what I had originally.
Not a huge issue for me (mostly now because I'm aware of it) but it has caused some confusion for my husband and I from time to time.

50 feet is not accurate enough for navigation. I often drive on roads parallel to a highway and navigation gives directions as though I am on the highway.

Google let me down badly today and yesterday when it wouldn't load traffic info.
I don't use it much but I needed it today again to pre plan at short notice knowing there were traffic problems from yesterday.
I survived by old fashioned knowledge, guess work and instinct today and found a good if convoluted route, but yesterday was carnage, though again it literally would have taken 5 times longer if I didn't take a last slip exit before being trapped and work around.

First blame maybe the network / carrier sure, but if Google is loading Sat Nav location it's using data anyway, and traffic usually loads quickly.
