Seriously what the f, don't these people ever slow down to look where they're going or something? When Google maps gives me false directions I don't crash into a tree.
Save us, Darwin.

The Garmin spokesperson said it best: "Stoplights aren't in our databases, either, but you're still expected to stop for stoplights."

GPS systems seem to be doing a pretty good job of weeding out the stupid from the intelligent.

Speaking of stopligts not in being in the database; PUT THEM IN THERE!
My gripe with GPS devices is their inability to actually account for stationary traffic devices when calculating a route. When determining that fastest route it should look at the number of stop signs, intersections and traffic lights. It will see that route A is a straight shot while route B is not. However it will fail to recognize that route A is a city street and route B is a highway. uggh.
