Once it was worse. Coming down the A1M(not a part I knew well) it said
"Take the next exit".

I did as it said and it took me two miles along a dual carriage took me
round a roundabout and back and returned me back to the same junction and
put me back on the A1(M)!


HAL, put me back on the A1M.
I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you
ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill and think things over.

Daisy, Daisy ...

Nice one! I saw the film too but my GPS system in the car has not tried
to kill me yet as far as I know. The female voice it uses remains calm
at all times. If it does try I shall disconnect her. No matter how rude
I am to her when she misdirects me she takes no notice and does not get
offended.

The problem is slightly tiresome and unpredictable but I am perfectly
calm about it.
