In Asia (generalising) if you ask somebody if the metro is in the right direction 80% of the people will say yes. That’s not because metros would happen to be always on the right. It’s due to the way that the question was asked. If you want to get a more true answer the question needs to be asked opened ended. For people it can be embarrassing to say no or maybe they didn’t understand the question fully and just want to be polite. So the better question here is: Where is the metro?
