What do we think of this? Surely it'd be just like having the wife sat besides you! What's up? Go this way etc.

Why do I need a F£)$(£ing computer to tell me where I want to go? I have a brain for this sort of stuff...
Its like sat nav....its crap...simply takes you the long way
My stone age TVR has none of this crap tech in it... and I can still manage to get to the shops to but toilet paper... must be something special...

"Oh hello little robot fella, what do you want? ooh you look sad..... oh crap..... look at the road............" CRASH.
just one more annoying thing to get in the way of actually driving the car. I cant see how that is legal its a massive distraction in your field of
view.
Another point is that all these 'aids' really dumbs down the users.
A survey asked a number of new drivers what the big blue line that went between birmingham and london on an AA road map... a large percentage thought
it was the Thames!!! Cant find the article that i read that in but found this one....

I think the designers have been on dope if they think anyone wants a glowing ET head stuck to their dash, what a truly stupid idea
actually their probably the same twits who came up with this for windows -

If you forget your way home then there's something wrong. When I was taxi-ing I had a local road set in the memory should I ever have found
myself at the other end of the country, but it only ever guided me to the motorway!
