Question 7950

If you have doubts about the GPS navigator's directions and it directs you onto a road where access is prohibited, it is most advisable that...

  1. the driver re-enter the destination data without stopping the vehicle.
  2. the driver's judgment take precedence over the navigator's directions.
  3. the driver follow the device's directions.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: the driver's judgment take precedence over the navigator's directions.

Use your judgment. The navigation device can be wrong because its maps do not account for all roadwork or changes in traffic direction, and if it directs you onto a street where entry is prohibited, you must not enter. Re-entering the destination while moving distracts you and is prohibited. In the image, there is a no-entry sign and a street with roadwork ahead.
