** The Tropers had to complete some silly [[Fetch Quest]] or [[Going to See The Elephant|go see some cheesy tourist trap]] [[ItsIt's the Journey That Counts|on the way]].
** Bob had to go off the main route to find a rest stop because one of the kids had a [[Potty Emergency]].

* '''Lampshaded''': "[[Christopher Columbus]] didn't need directions, and neither do I!"

* '''Invoked''': Bob decides to take a shortcut, even [[Directionless Driver|throwing the map out the window]].
