An Uber driver from Flagstaff, Arizona ended up in an unexpected predicament after his brand-new Hyundai was routed onto an off-road trail. He had picked up passengers in the small community of Munds Park and said he was simply following the navigation directions, which initially appeared to lead down an ordinary road.
Relying too heavily on GPS guidance can occasionally steer drivers into situations their vehicles aren’t built to handle. A standard passenger car is no match for rugged terrain, and the misadventure serves as a reminder to use common sense when an app’s directions start to look questionable.
