    Actually, it is not that stupid.. I have a TomTom and this happens quite frequently. I sometimes find it showing me driving through a field instead of on the road. It is a simple case of the maps in the GPS not matching the satellite signals.

    Anon: That and the road actually DOES go out into the water now. I think it's rising sea levels.

    Kathe: You mean 'new car loan'.

    4WD is for tourists.
