Ah yes

I can just imagine these idiots in this blame someone else society :@

Obviously a footpath well before that point and therfore illigal driving, but hey...it's OK I'll just blame GPS

The 43-year-old, who works as a driver, said he relied on his sat nav for his job.

I'd say Sat Nav Sheep rather than Nerd per se. Now if we could just harness this technology for evil mwah ha ha

The thing is, a lot of these clowns seem to be on the way to visit someone they know.... presumably they must surely know the way to drive anyway!

Hmm, a BMW.
Normally you'd expect an Audi.

What a quality piece of driving from someone who apparently drives for a living!

Hate to say it, but certainly in my experience, a significant amount of people who drive for a living tend to be the ones who have the least amount of attention or courtesy when driving on the public roads.

I've lost count of the number of so called professional drivers that get reported for a variety of traffic offences.

How many times on a daily basis do we see bus drivers pulling out into moving traffic whilst giving someone their change, a taxi driver doing a u-turn right in front of you and of course the aggressive tailgating characteristics of the white van man?

Lorry drivers are also a mixed bag. Some are outstanding drivers. Some are literally lethal.

Looking at that ledge the chap is lucky he did'nt get killed. :roll:

To be honest if he wants to kill himself through his own stupidity then that's his prerogative and it would only serve to do the gene pool some good. I'm more concerned about the next time he does it (or another sat nav sheep) and ploughs into some pedestrians or oncoming traffic.
