Did he really think the GPS knew how wide his truck was?

I'll never understand why some people blindly follow the spoken directions of a GPS without regard to the laws of physics or common sense.

From the Daily Mail comes the story of Yuri, the Czech driver of the lorry (truck to us) pictured at right. It seems that Yuri spent three days in the cab of his truck when he blindly followed the directions from his GPS down a lane in Devon, England which was obviously not wide enough to handle his vehicle.

The moral of the story is that the best GPS accessory is a pair of human eyes.
