Reply #22: sorry sounds like being vision impaired nearly cost the woman her life, not the GPS

[pitohui]

recently, in a foreign land, the GPS informed that i was driving across a broad river, but i decided to go w. the evidence of my eyes and simple common sense -- the river had once been there, clearly, but it had dried up and was no more -- the GPS data base was out of date...shit happens...a GPS does not replace the necessity to use your own eyes

if a woman is so vision impaired that she is unable to see traintracks COMPLETE WITH ONCOMING TRAIN, a bad GPS program is the least of her problems, she needs to be banned from driving

i have an older relative who is all but blind, who insists on driving, i just hope someone pulls her license before she kills herself or somebody else

if you can no longer tell when a fucking TRAIN is headed your way, you are criminally irresponsible to be at the wheel of a car
