Global Positioning System...Rebecca mentioned on another thread: "Word to the wise, do not follow a GPS. We've had go many persons get very lost on very bad roads following GPS directions."

Does anyone have any funny stories to share about what "idiot" directions, on local roads, your GPS wanted you to take?

Example: Driving up Mountainside, en route to Munro, and being directed over the side of Mountainside in point two (2) kilometers.

"The GPS Navigation Series: Imagine a “Jamaicanized” version of a GPS navigation system where directions provided identify people by name, hardly include street names, and underestimate time and distance. This “Yaad GPS” is rude, lacks common courtesy and give its drivers pure hell! Put yourself in the driver’s seat and take a ride with the GPS. But if you cross the GPS, there is no telling how the ride will end."

nobody can cross it!
