Sat Nav over here is notorious for leading people up one way streets, across people's back gardens and through shops. I had a good argument a couple of years ago with some cretin who was putting too much trust in his sat nav and trying to drive down my street, which has a locked barrier at one end. He seemed to think that because his sat nav didn't show the barrier, he had a right to try and force it open to drive through. Cretin.
