That fancy sat-nav system could help you drive greener
We've all gotten lost at some point trying find some place we've never been to before and it certainly goes without saying that we waste a lot of gas driving around aimlessly trying to figure out where we are. A new study in Britain estimates that drivers there waste 812,500 gallons of fuel a year thanks to getting lost. Given that the study was funded by Becker, a manufacturer of vehicle satellite navigation systems, it makes perfect sense that their solution would be to use a navigation system to avoid unnecessary turns. If only built-in systems weren't typically $1,000+ options, they might even make financial sense.
