If it had been me, I might have ended up in another city!!!!!

Here's another one. After going to a theme park called Rainbows End with free tickets from work with my sister (how nice am I!), it was late (about 11pm), and was travelling home. I see a motorway sign for the suburb I live in, (this is on a main highway) so I take it, only I end up on back roads in the back of the city!!!! I had to drive all the way back (took about 3/4 hr) then try again, come back again, and just take the long route back (which I did going there). Turns out that the motorway was there, and the name of it was correct but I should have turned left rather than straight ahead like the sign said!!! Talk about DUH!
