Study: 60% of Drivers Scream at SatNav

Thanks to the All Points Blog for pointing me to this study.  The results make me ask whey th average driver uses a GPS at all:

In a study of 2000 British Drivers age 17-45, Skobbler, a company that uses OpenStreetMap as its SatNav (GPS) BaseMap found:

-  One in five frequently become angry with their SatNav
-  The average motorist will travel 1,292 miles in the wrong direction during their life because ‘The SatNav told me to’
-  47% said they had a love/hate relationship with their SatNav
-  Three in ten hate having to put up with losing the satellite signal
-  One quarter struggle with getting the SatNav to stick to the windscreen
-  The average Brit takes about 9 journeys in their car per week and uses their SatNav on at least two of the journeys
-  Half of the drivers admit to swearing at their GPS systems while suffering “SatNav Rage”
