Psychology says people who can't remember routes even after traveling hundred times aren't absent-minded, their brain may priortizing different things

Some people can drive across town after visiting a place only once. Others may travel the same route for months and still hesitate at intersections or depend on GPS for reassurance. This difference is surprisingly common. Psychology suggests that struggling to remember roads does not automatically mean someone has a poor memory or low intelligence.

There is no scientific evidence that everyone who forgets directions shares the same personality. Navigation ability varies because of experience, attention, spatial skills, stress, and even the strategies people use to find their way.
