Three Japanese tourists found themselves in an embarrassing situation after their GPS led them to drive right into the muddy waters of Moreton Bay. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh that makes sense now

My GPS every so often will go crazy. I dont know what is wrong but I figured out if I reboot my phone it will fix it. Also a GPS is a guide and not a replacement for common sense. I have a Thomas Guide in my car at all times now even though I dont use it very often

As I read the thread title I thought "Hmm.. I wonder if this is part of the planned inaccuracy of civilian level GPS that I've heard about... I wonder if that's true..." then I clicked and read: the_great_ontex posted:

And uh... yeah...

Doesn't surprise me at all. Japanese people are the biggest sheep in the world. I'm sure at least 5 out of 10 people would drive into the water if the machine told them to.
