* In ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'', while not involving cars, Lynn doesn't allow Lincoln and Clyde to use a map or ask for directions in school, claiming that it would make them the target of bullying for being "[[NaiveNewcomer noobs]]", and that mean-spirited upperclassmen will intentionally misdirect them in order to get them lost. However, because Lincoln and Clyde still don't know the school well and haven't studied the map, [[DeconstructedTrope they still get lost]], and when someone offers them help they rebuke him, thinking he'd be one of those "mean guys" who would misdirect them on purpose, resulting in them getting lost further.

* One of the drivers during the Creator/MontyPython First Farewell Tour, a fellow identified only as Sid, was mentioned by several of the Python crew as having been utterly unable to find anything, anywhere. On one occasion, according to Michael Palin, he managed to mess up a two-minute journey so badly it took half an hour.

* Bobby Slayton argued that this trope doesn't actually exist in real life, as men will actually plan their route weeks in advance if they have something they're looking forward to (such as a baseball game). He argues the trope only applies if the man is going somewhere they ''don't'' want to go, such as the woman's relatives for Christmas ("Whoops, missed the turn-off...").

Even though Jill ''already has'' directions, Tim refuses to use them, and they end up in Ohio instead.

One of the classic StockShticks, and a sister trope to NoSenseOfDirection. Also see YouCantMissIt, ShortcutsMakeLongDelays, and TooDumbToLive. Compare and contrast with WomenDrivers.

For the record, while the Directionless Driver in general ''is'' TruthInTelevision, the gender difference may not be. A ''Series/MythBusters'' test of 14 drivers, 7 male and 7 female showed that male drivers that took part in the test do tend to ask for directions ''sooner'' than female drivers (a minute sooner on average, with the average male taking just over 4 minutes, and the average female taking just over 5), and both men and women were equally likely to stop (six out of seven of each gender ''did'' stop).

* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', Pain does technically ask for directions for where Naruto is, but does so in a sufficiently manly manner, i.e. [[spoiler:attempting to solo an entire city full of super-powered ninja,]] which is rather... inefficient, especially given that this is wears-bright-orange-and-never-shuts-up Naruto we're talking about.
