Probably the ghost voice of the GPS it is almost Halloween, It surely will not be speeding, driving at night on bad or not  enlighted  roads, a mini sleep or all other things. In daytime it is already dangerous at night even more. Hope he will recover soon

Don't see anywhere in the news-blip where he states that.   Simple states he was using GPS.

Not sure whether you read the same article:

The return journey was at night and he was not familiar with the road so he set up his GPS.

 

However it took him down a narrow road and at 2 am he overturned.

What would you see behind "it"?

 

Such things happen worldwide. 18 wheel trucks stuck in suburban housing area, on forest paths etc.

It depends on how the GPS is set up. ie for the shortest route, the fastest route, use avoid main highways etc.

Even so, night, unfamiliar narrow road, maybe slower speed might have been  prudent. Oh ! forget it. TIT

Hands up if you agree....Odds are he was looking at the phone!!!!

Most idiot accidents like this are caused by the good old phone but they have to make up some BS excuse to save face/never take responsibility as we all know.....TIT!!!
