Description (last modified by kazer)
It would be useful to announce the systematic name too in the spoken instructions, because highways sometimes have 'nicknames', but the nicknames or not indicated on the big signs when you have a split.
If you look at this map : http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/37.7312/-122.4053 ( id : http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/123741462 )
coming on i101, going north navit will say "stay on your left on james freeway" and the signs will not reflect this so this can lead to an incorrect understanding :

More recent version of the code does announcements like "in one kilometer right exit 2A towards Sir Francis Drake Boulevard" which addresses this ticket. Thanks Jan!
Please test with today's (or later) version from github and try to report with the exact words. We now have : onto smth., in to (the street), towards, ... When reproducing from memory it may all have sounded similar, but code-wise there are big differences.
