According to Gizmodo, which cites the Spanish language publication El Mundo, the 67-year-old woman was heading from her home in Belgium to a train station in Brussels, 93 miles north of where she started, to pick up a pal. When she turned on her GPS, it told her to head south — so head south she did.

Woman Likely Quite Annoyed To Have Driven 900 Miles Instead Of 90 Due To GPS Error
Anyone who’s ever gone on a road trip has had that moment like, “Wait… this doesn’t feel right.” But what if your GPS is telling you it is right? One woman who decided to abide by her GPS had the misfortune to drive 900 miles over two days and across multiple countries instead of the quick 90 miles she intended.

I'm just wondering if the women is right in the head. Most ppl would have figured it out before they go that far. I guess if she lived here and was going to baltimore and the gps said go east she would. then when she got to o.c. it told her to go straight for 25 miles, she would prob. dive in the ocean.
Further proof that you just can't fix stupid!
how can a person be that stupid? It's like the toyota drivers who couldn't stop their cars.
ppl are stupid!
thats like starting in OC and going to baltimore. 2 days? take this stupid person license! she shouldnt be driving at all!
If this had happened in the US she would have sued and won.Just imagine if this had happened in the US,she had driven 900 miles instead of 90,and she had stopped at a McDonalds drive in window and spilled hot coffee on herself.She would then be rich,but still stupid.
