I think I've found the place he got stuck....
Looking at the buildings I reckon it was 'Watty Lane' HERE.
A TomTom sees it as navigable......
But I agree - use your common sense! |

The guy fully deserved prosecution. Anyone with any common sense at all would have realises something wasn't right long before.
He is very lucky not to have been killed as a result of such stupidity. Far too many drivers switch their brains off when they switch the satnav on, it is NOT an auto-pilot!
And quite how they think that quad bike is going to help I have no idea!

Yes, Andy, nice one.
As for the quad bike, I reckon it is just about to prove that you can't tow a Beamer backwards up a cliff with a quad bike!
But what a plonker Rodney. To get to that point, he's been challenging mountain goats for how far?

He just needs to get a real mans car. Any decent 4x4 would navigate that "road" no problems. Therefore the problem was not the SatNav, just his car  |

The problem was the lump of lard about 18 inches behind the steering wheel!  |
