I like Sat Nav. Thought I could live without it before we got it, but now it is invaluable on a long journey.

Of course, I like to think I've got a bit of common sense and if it was sending me on an obviously wrong route, I would have the sense to try a different route.

She sounds like a right dumbo though!

Dry it out it will be right as rain, bit of a pondy odour, tadpoles in the glovebox but it will survive, there is not way thats not going back on the road.

They are an indispensable tool it has to be said. Now I wouldn't think twice about going to an unknown destination.

My tomtom is awesome - and yes, it has its little quirks, but what do you expect? its a computer.

This is just people blaming sat-navs for their own gross stupidity. The sat-nav just knows theres a road there - doesn't know how good it is!
