Sat navs sticking point
April 18, 2008
Satellite navigation systems are leading drivers down unsuitable routes in Wokingham, say police.
A driver wedged his lorry in narrow Murdoch Road on Monday, April 14.
When police arrived the driver, who did not speak English, waved his sat nav to let them know what had happened.
When lorries get stuck, police have to close off the road to let the driver reverse out.
Police say the systems are guiding increasing numbers of drivers along narrow roads as a rat run between Wokingham and Bracknell.
