Stunning. I've got GPS in my cars, and even when I'm hiking. As someone else noted, his car has a "lane departure warning". If he doesn't have his turn signal on, it warns him that he's not where he should be. It amazes me that this technology isn't on every commercial airliner, where the stakes are a lot higher. I have topo software, combine that with a GPS and there would never be another CFIT.
