Question Situational Awareness

I find it increasingly frightning just how many singles are flown on a regular basis overhead the gliding site at Husband Bosworth at 2000ft or lower.. .Everytime I have been out to the site this year there has been a minimum of at least one aircraft a day flying directly overhead.. .Considering how busy this place gets, and the altitudes gained of the winch, it seems only a matter of time before a potential incident occurs.. .Why cant people read maps anymore, or are they just spending all their time following a GPS that doesnt cater for restricted airspace...come on you guys/girls be a bit more aware of your surroundings!!
