Driving around has become easy thanks to the GPS. From letting you know which routes to avoid, to giving you an estimated time of arrival, it has made life easy. But in a bizarre event, a woman driver in Pennsylvania, US, landed up on train tracks all because of GPS.

City of Duquesne Police Department shared a post on Facebook speaking about the event. Last week, around 10 pm, the city of Duquesne Police Department was dispatch for a vehicle on the railroad tracks at Grant Avenue and State Route 837. The officers reached out to the driver when they learned that her GPS led her on the tracks.

“The female was 100% sober and had no medical conditions affecting her decision-making. The vehicle was towed from the scene and the driver was cited for careless driving,” says the Facebook post.

People also expressed their opinion on the incident. While some called her ‘stupid’, others had just too many questions to ask the police department. Check out some comments here:
