Do Not Follow Sat Nav!


Are we becoming too reliant on technology?
In part of the south downs i visit regularly we have just had a new sign put up. Seems delivery drivers aren't using maps anymore. The paper map shows via colours and icons difficult roads. Alot of drivers are relying on sat nav and following blindly that seductive voice from the dashboard!
I think we might be seeing more of these signs being erected over the coming months.....but i'm not sure how effective they are as most drivers don't read roadsigns much these days!

I have *never* seen a sign like that before. Amazing that we've come this far this fast. Wonder when the same things will show up over here??
