At the WWDC, Apple previewed its upcoming iOS 6, which will include Apple’s own mapping services instead of relying on Google Maps. The new Maps application gets a new user interface and includes turn-by-turn direction. The icon has also been changed to reflect the new turn-by-turn feature. Funny enough, the icon actually gives a wrong turn, as discovered by a twitter user – james mountain<\/a>, which will make you drive off a bridge and kill yourself.
