SPAIN: GPS Sends Driver To Watery Death.

GUARDIAN/
   Here's a reminder NOT to blindly rely on your car's GPS for directions.
   A 37-year-old man died Saturday night after driving his car into a reservoir near the western town of Capilla. However, his passenger escaped.
    The Red Cross reported that "it seems the GPS system pointed them on to an old road that ends in the reservoir, and that in the dark they were unable to brake in time, with the car taking just a couple of minutes to sin."
