    >>> !explorer "ms-drive-to:? 
destination.latitude=47.680504&destination.longitude=-122.328262&destination.name=Green Lake"

    If you want to run in code, do like others method.All the answers are correct.

    import os

command_str = 'explorer "ms-drive-to:? destination.latitude=47.680504&destination.longitude=-122.328262&destination.name=Green Lake"'
