An 80-year-old German tourist believed in his GPS navigation device so much that when it told him to “Drive on, Jerry!” despite all the “closed for construction” indications, he closed his eyes and rammed through — until a pile of sand abruptly ended his trip.

“The driver was following the orders from his navigation system and even though there was a sufficient number of warnings and barricades, he continued his journey into the construction site,” a police spokeswoman has said.

I can’t help but admire this fellow; I imagine if his GPS device had also told him Santa Claus existed, he would have believed it.
