  Council erects sign that tells drivers: Don't trust your satnav
Council erects sign that tells drivers: Don't trust your satnav
In the village of St Hilary, a succession of trusting lorry drivers have followed their satnav down a narrow, bendy lane - only to find they are stuck. But there's help on the way - and not in the form of a tow truck. Instead, the authorities have put up a sign warning drivers not to believe everything their satellite navigation tells them. picked by AutumnLotus 1 year ago

Navigate by cable
This proof of concept website is intriguing, if ill-conceived. Instead of a tiny map, this satnav system will project a "cable" into the real environment for you to follow. picked by pocksucket 9 months ago

Never fully trust your sat-nav
I have just been sent this link by a friend. The guy ignored warning signs and put his trust in his satnav, as you read on a tale unwinds that you couldn't write! Classic. picked by thecritters 1 year ago
