In March 2012 three Japanese tourists in Australia decided to take a day trip to a small offshore island, and drove their car straight into the Pacific Ocean. The driver, twenty-one-year-old Yuzu Nuda, later said that she just followed the instructions of the GPS and “it told us we could drive down there. It kept saying it would navigate us to a road. We got stuck.”12 In several similar incidents people drove into a lake or fell off a demolished bridge by following GPS instructions.
