As I’m in the process of slowing shutting down other sites I’ve worked on (due to time constraints), I’m reposting them here. Here’s an article from the 12th of May 2007 from “Treble R News” which was going to be a Register-esque general news site.
“A 20 year old students car was wrecked by a train after she followed her sat nav system onto a railway track”, BBC News South West reports.
The female student said “I put my complete trust in the sat nav and it led me right into the path of a speeding train…The crossing wasn’t shown on the sat nav, there were no signs at all and it wasn’t lit up to warn of an oncoming train.” – in other words, she was totally trusting her satellite navigation system and not actually looking at the road.
Next I think we’ll hear of people complaining that they knocked over pedestrians or hit cyclists because “they weren’t shown on the sat nav”!
