Barry Brown,a GPS technologist,took an incident as an example.His friend once flew to an airport in the eastern United States.There he borrowed a GPSequipped car to use.He wrongly plugged in the home address in the west.It wasn’t until he was driving for thirty minutes that he realized it.Mr.Brown says this is a common human error.But he says,“One problem is that GPS has a very small screen and it can just tell you the next turn.

“The Normal and Natural Troubles of Driving with GPS” lists several areas where GPS can cause difficulties.They include maps that are outdated,incorrect or difficult to understand.
