GPS Tells Motorist To Do U-Turn On Expressway...So He
Does
Nancy, France (AFP)
Nov 30, 2004
An elderly motorist driving along a 130-kilometre
(80-mile) an hour expressway in eastern France caused
an accident when he followed the advice of his onboard
GPS computer - and made a U-turn to drive into
the high-speed traffic. Police said the hapless
78-year-old driver, who was not named, and the
occupants
of the vehicle he ran into escaped unharmed from the
collision late Sunday, but it could have been much
worse.
