Thumbs down Woman runs for her life after satnav leads her into path of a train

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1770. I cant believe there wasnt a sign telling drivers and pedistrians what to do in order to cross the line.

It's a sorry state when people would rather believe what a little plastic box tells them rather than use their own commonsense.
As someone said in the newspaper comments: "A gate across a road is there for a purpose"

hmm...how stupid can you get?

and how about thisa opinion added " It is never the train driver's fault - why don't they have to go at such a speed that they can stop if there is something on the track?"
whats next? a man with a red flag walking in front of the train.....maybe the train driver should have steered round her!!!!
