<\/p>\nThis is just another case of following the GPS blindly. Apparently, one UK driver trusted the GPS instruction so much that he drove his BMW into a fence and beyond the fence is a cliff.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Luckily, he halted just in time. The morale of this story is “update your GPS map and watch the road”.<\/p>\n
When I first started using GPS a few years ago, I literally glue my eyes to the display. You will need some practice to stay focus on the road. Moreover, the instruction is sometimes inaccurate and therefore, you can rely on it for directions.<\/p>\n
Nowadays, I use two navigation system, Mapking and Google Map as the latter provides me with satellite view which I can easily identify the buildings.
