Grrrr....

Woman hit by train while driving blames Satellite Navigation System. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_west/6646331.stm

"I can't completely blame the sat nav because up until there, it did get me where I needed to go," she added.

...

"If maybe I had been more aware of the situation, I wouldn't have had the accident."


NO KIDDING.

I agree not to be as harsh about it. Though I also agree that there had to have been something wrong with the light by the gate because I doubt that if the light were not green that she would have opened the gate as she seems to be the kind of person who follows directions unwaveringly.

And she was driving at night so it would have been more difficult to notice the train tracks especially on a road where the rails tend to be flush with the road. So I could understand her not noticing the tracks given the personality she seems to have.

So given her personality, it does all make sense. And, that being said, I have no problem pointing her out for the sheep she is.
