Woman blames satnav for driving into lake

An Australian woman has driven into a lake and said her satellite navigation system is to blame.
Petra Lang, 27, used the device to point her in the direction of Lake Grundlsee, but when she tried to take a shortcut she was unsighted by undergrowth and ended up going straight into the water, according to the emergency services.
One rescuer said: "She insisted the satnav system was to blame.
"She said she typed in that she wanted to go to the lake - but got closer than she intended."
Petra escaped safely but firefighters had to pull the van out of the lake.
