* The incident is far from unique. People following GPS guidance have driven their cars into a lake in Washington state, straight on at a T-intersection and into a house in New Jersey, down a flight of stairs in Manhattan, along a rocky footpath to the brink of a cliff in Yorkshire, and into a large sand pit at a construction site in Hamburg. Tourist officials in the inland Italian town of Carpi were once confused by questions about sea caves from fat-fingered Swedes who turned out to believe they had driven to Capri, 400 miles and a boat ride away. Even more extraordinary is the tale of a woman hoping to pick up a friend from the local train station in Belgium who instead trustingly drove 800 miles to Zagreb, Croatia.
