I was driving with a mate up around Leitrim a few weeks ago and the satNav said we were in a lake when we were on a road! You wouldn't want to be too gullible with one of these gadgets!

I wonder if that guy was using his BMW nav or a Garmin?

Now, I wonder if he would have a case to take against the Sat Nav company.

You really need to use common sense and not totally trust the sat nav.

There's pictures like that on the news almost every week. People following the satnav blindly the wrong way down one way streets, into rivers and even along railway tracks.

Some people just ARE stupid ...satnavs help to filter them out

I've read about that sort of thing a few times alright. When the satnav says
"turn left now"
some morons have just turned the wheel without actually checking that it's a turn.:rolleyes:

There was another case about 2 years ago where an ambulance was following the sat nav around Liverpool, trying to get back to the hospital and it brought them 50 miles away.
