Navigation system directs driver into sand pile

[janbo1960]

An 80-year-old German motorist obediently following his navigation system has ignored a motorway "closed for construction" sign and crashed his Mercedes into a pile of sand further down the road.

"The driver was following the orders from his navigation system and even though there was a sufficient number of warnings and barricades, he continued his journey into the construction site," a police spokeswoman said.

"His trip finally ended when he wound up crashing into a pile of sand."

The driver and his wife escaped uninjured from the collision, which occurred on a motorway near Hamburg.


I wonder if he has his Law Degree???
