 Portsmouth.co.uk reports that a female motorist was misdirected down the A27 by her SatNav last December, resulting in a collision which tragically resulted in her death.
The twenty-one year old woman from Chichester was killed following a head-on collision which occurred after her SatNav advised her to take the first turning on a roundabout, directing her towards oncoming traffic on the A27.
A verdict of 'accidental death' was recorded by the coroner whilst one of the police offers involved in the case explained the accident could have resulted from a "momentary lapse in concentration" coupled with the woman's unfamiliarity with the area.
