GPS

I've made two trips up to Joburg in the last few weeks to visit Cath, while she does her ICU rotation.  One of the problems of visiting a new town, is being in the new town... and not knowing where the flip you, any of the time.

On the face of it GPS technology is super-duper. It occupies a grey area though, being trustworthy 95% of the time and behaving like a psychotic ex-wife the other 5%... sending you down one-way roads, non-existent left turns, or in our case... straight through Hillbrow and Yeoville after dark.

I remember turning right into a 4 lane road in Durban a few years ago, and about 7 seconds later realizing all four lanes had oncoming traffic in them.  Final Destination... indeed.
