"Sheriff’s officials said the Oshkosh woman was going from the White Lake area to Laona through heavily wooded Langlade County on Tuesday when the best routing from the GPS sent her onto a road that forked into a snowmobile trail.
Several miles down the frozen path she stopped and couldn’t turn around in about a foot and a half of snow surrounding the car.
She called 911 at 10:44 a.m.
Deputy Keith Svoboda said it took a while to find her and much longer to get heavy equipment in to free the vehicle. Deputies dropped her at a motel for the night.
Svoboda said the lesson is, “People shouldn’t believe everything those things tell you.”" GPS directions put her car on a snowmobile trail | greenbaypressgazette.com | Green Bay Press-Gazette

What? Did the GPSr put a gun to her head and tell her to drive on the snowmobile trail? Where is the personal accountability?
I use a GPSr (as apposed to a GPS -which is the satellite in orbit)in the car, and NEVER had that problem.
Boy, if she's that dependent upon the GPSr to get her someplace, and can't decide for herself whether a road is a road or not, perhaps she's better off staying home.
Katrina, thank you and I hear you.
Just a little common sense can go a long way.
Have a GREAT weekend.
