А, ну это-то конечно. Мне уж подумалось, мошт я опять в жизне што-то краеугольное упускаю, ну тогда не всё так запущено.

Quinte West firefighters donned wetsuits to rescue a stranded woman from the roof of a partially submerged car in a swamp here.

Local OPP received a 911 call from the woman saying she was lost. She told police she was standing on the top of her car because it was submerged in a marsh off Monaghan road in Murray Ward.

Police say the woman, who had been using GPS directions, became lost and drove into the swamp.

According to firefighters, the woman lost control of her car, ending up in the dense marsh.

Quinte West and Northumberland OPP, along with firefighters searched the entire Murray Conservation Area, but were unable to locate the woman.

Fire chief John Whelan said firefighters activated sirens on their trucks while talking to the woman on her cellphone. Eventually ATVs were used in the search.

Once the woman was located, three firefighters waded into hip deep water and carried the woman to safety.

The driver, said Whelan, was cold and wet, but uninjured.

She was taken to Quinte West OPP headquarters in Trenton and eventually driven home to Bath by the OPP.

Кто про что, а я про Waze. Эта система в которой пользователи сообщают в реальном времени об пробках, авариях,полицейских засадах и так далее. Полезно быть в курсе. И GPS высчитывает время прибытия.

It is perhaps the secret fear of all users of GPS systems: what if the device gets it wrong and leads you into danger?

The Spanish Red Cross said today this was exactly what happened to a 37-year-old man who died on Saturday night after driving his car into a reservoir near the western town of Capilla.

"It seems the GPS system pointed them on to an old road that ends in the reservoir, and that in the dark they were unable to brake in time, with the car taking just a couple of minutes to sink," the Red Cross said in a statement.

The victim and a single passenger were driving home towards the southern city of Seville after working at a street fair when the Peugeot 306 ploughed straight into the waters of La Serena reservoir.

Although both men managed to get out of the car, only one made it to the shore. Red Cross divers found the body of the unnamed driver at the bottom of the reservoir on Sunday morning.

The passenger was treated for bruising and light injuries.

Pictures of the scene show the old road running on a slight downhill slope straight into the reservoir, which is the biggest in the country.

There was no explanation of why the GPS still showed the road as usable. La Serena reservoir, which stores water from the Zújar river, was built in 1989.

Какой замечательный повод у кого-то самашедшие деньги в исках отсудить...
