Ok, this is really open for comments here.. but after I noticed a UK article was now showing up on Reuters, it has caused a little concern in people and technology.
Obedient motorist crashes on satnav command
Are we this incapable of deciding whether little Johnny should jump (or in this case drive his car onto a railroad) off a bridge?
Or have the Germans become this reliant (and I only refer to Germans since this is what the article is referencing) that they can no longer even drive their car using their own brains?
Here is another article from Dec that seem to be providing proof of this navigation brain drain!
Crash, bang with satellite navigation
Does this concern anyone else? Has anyone else actually did what their nav system told them to do and it was really wrong?
