Hi! Need a ride? We're going your way!

- We'd better get gas here. There's not another gas station in this direction for fifty miles.
- (asking for directions)
a: How much further is it to the Berlitz Botanical Gardens?
b: About five miles. But you're driving in the wrong direction. (pointing) It's that way. - I began to think that we weren't going in the right direction because most of the traffic was heading (= moving) in the opposite direction.
- (fictional news report)
Highway 66 from Bluewater to Grants is currently closed in both directions due to flooding. - The tornado suddenly changed direction and began moving our way.
- Since I have no sense of direction, I'm hopeless without a map.
We'll be heading back in your direction this time tomorrow. Rides are free! All we ask for is the pleasure of your company!
