I rode along a cliff road about 1000 feet up a mountain with the sat nav telling me to turn left (off the edge) then asking me to make a U turn and turn right! seems height is not a factor on the TomTom |

I won't have one in my car - I draw maps.
Last time I went to Pink Punters I got lost and my friend Gemma used the sat nav on her phone. It was a sarcastic bitch who told me to turn around at the next junction |

I got the womans voice on mine... Aint having no man tell me where i gotta go!! Lol ... Had total nightmares with my old one, telling me to do either a u turn on the M4... Or turn right... Up a 30 foot bank, all this while stuck in a mother of all traffic jam on M4 ( people were taking dogs for walks and smoking outside of their cars ) in end, threw it in glove compartment and used a map. New one is great! And saved me many a time from being totaly lost. |

I couldn't survive without mine! I drive long enough hours without having to factor getting lost into my day!
Thanks to Tom, I have turned into a side street... one way the opposite direction and came face to face with a bus!

True story.
Once i think i was trying to get back from fruit picking or chessington when i was in sixth form i think. Can't remember. But, the wanker of a sat nav took me through like a field with a narrow road to a dead end.
....only to realise that in front of me there is a car with a lady inside and guys surrounding it. Took me a while to register what's happening. But, the sat nav kept saying to go 'straight ahead'.

I dont rely on mine as much as before, as it sometimes skips a few miles along the route and tells me as if Im already there. Worst experience was being sent in thick fog, whilst in Devon, up a steep hill, on am unmarked road and eventually getting lost on the moors. Miles from anywhere, thicker fog, I eventually just got out, took a rest, sighed and Tom Tom never had the same relationship with me again. That will probably be the last time it is trusted in somewhere so remote. |

Driving through the Highlands last year in a white out the bloody sat nav sent me down a farm track..twenty miles of bouncing off hedges through the hills and i swear i think it was playing the banjo from deliverance |
