Jalan Tun Abddul Razak
Alor Setar, Kedah

Please refer graphic. Found something weird when plotting routes around the junction of Jalan Tun Abdul Razak with Jalan Alor Semadom.
Please compare from Route from A to B & Route from C to D. How come route from C to D, the map suggested to make the U-turn while route from A to B, the map suggested to make the U-turn at the roundabout further down the road?

Alas, U-turn is not allowed as depicted from attached graphic but if can make U-turn for route C to D, why route A to B cannot? Hmmm..

Tested on my Mapsource (6.13.6), both make a u-turn at the same juction, never go to the roundabout... - OngCC

Dear OngCC, tested again on Mapsource (6.15.6), and the problem still there and i have discovered that from Point A or C (refer to my last post), if you set to go before N6 08.351 E100 22.660 (Jalan Tun Abdul Razak and Jalan Dato Haji Shuib 6 junction), it will ask to make the U-turn. If from A or C to any point after or at N6 08.351 E100 22.660, then it'll use the roundabout.

Why does different version of Mapsource gives different results?

bro alharis299. Always thought that upgrade & new version is better then previous one. Can't seems to find the reasons why 6.13.7 is the recommended version. Maybe need to do more thread readings
Okeh.. will try to install the recommended version of mapsource. Wish me luck!
