Stupid GPS

I have a Tomtom navigatior in my car, and there is one thing that have been bugging me for some time. I dont know if it's the same in other countrys, but here in Sweden we have even numbers on one side of the street and odd on the other. So if I tell my navigator that Im going to the number 137 and it cant find it. It suggest the closest number that it know of. Sure that would be fine most of the times but if it cant find 137 you would guess it would suggest the closest number on that side of the street, right... WRONG, it suggest'ed 24. Some streest are long and it's not always that 25 is on the other side of the street from 24. So fist of all suggest a number on the same side. Second dont suggest a number that is miles from each other.
One time the damn GPS lead me in to the forest, the road become more narrow and finaly it ended up with a barrier. It took me miles to get on the right track again. I later heard that the road had been closed for over 15 years! Nice that your maps are updated Tomtom!
