A few months back I found this story on GPS Navigation, today I spotted this one, which is about 10 miles from my house

SECAUCUS, N.J. – Modern technology is steering some drivers the wrong way in northern New Jersey. Truck drivers using GPS devices and online directions to reach an industrial section of Secaucus are reaching only a road block on Fifth Street. The electronic maps don’t show a gate that separates the residential and industrial areas. It’s only open for a couple hours weekdays.

I don’t currently own a GPS, but I have been thinking about one for a while now, especially after last week when I spent twenty minutes figuring out how to get to my destination which I could see, but was on the other side of a highway.  They are obviously not perfect, but will probably help 99% of the time,  GPS sends drivers to road block

Two stories today about little kids taking to the roads.  First six year old Josh Barber really wanted Applebee’s chicken nuggets so tried to drive himself there to get some.  To his credit he was very concerned about safety, even moved his car seat up to the drivers seat

After taking the car keys, he unlocked the car, moved his child seat to the driver’s seat so he could see better and tried to drive off.

but the plan did not work out too well

But, unable to take the car out of reverse, he backed up 75 feet from her house into a transformer, knocking out electricity and phone service to dozens of townhouses in this suburb north of Denver.

Next up was three year old Jordan Will and his unnamed two year old passenger who took to the roads in his battery powered car .  They made it several blocks from the house before the police managed to pull them over, but apparently not ticket was issues as they had obeyed all the traffic signs.

He even obeyed the signs, so that was good. He stopped at the red light and got on the cross walk,” said neighbor Jaci Bauer.

Jordan had a perfectly good explanation for where they went

He just said, ‘We went for a ride, daddy,’

but it looks like his days of cruising around the neighborhood are over for now.

All Jordan can do now is sit in the little car. His father has taken away the keys and removed the battery.

My four year old has just recently learned how to operate the garage door openers, and unlock the door from the house in to the garage, maybe it is time to start rethinking where I keep my car keys.
