    much rather use a map, they are pretty easy you know and can pick one up for as little as 1.99 in some service stations.

    I've got one. If you've visiting an area and have the post code they are really the nuts. If it's an area I don't know I always look at the map as well. I once made the mistake of not looking at my map before I set out for the Vendee in France. I stayed the night in Caen and after an hour or so's guidance by Sat Nav it told me to turn right at a roundabout where the wasn't a right junction! Turned out it was taking me onto a road which was still under construction! I blame the French for trying to confuse Les Rostbiffs...;O)

    trying to read a map while driving is just downright dangerous. So yes they are good inventions.

    you dont read it whilst driving though curb it you plan your route before you go, they are only good on journeys up and down motor ways imo for those who fail to plan before they go, they are cack in built up areas and those that do have a decent one fail to keep uploading the newest maps availble and in our great city where one way streets can change over night cause more issues than those that use their eyes and savy to get about, what did people do before the sat nav.

    sorry but these things drive me mad

    They're useful but always look at a map too. Near where I live there is a signpost which says "Foot Ferry ONLY (Sat-Nav Error)".

    yes I am been on it 3 years now and the end is in sight hopefully 4/5 months left. Hard hard work but rewarding at the end of it.
