The famous example of that happened in the middle of the night during a storm, but you can use the other common example of being told to turn the wrong way into a one way.
The two scenarios seem similar, an ai giving dangerous directions and I suspect the difference in age and experience would not effect the precedent.

- cpuguy83 5y agoIn both situations I don't think this is "blindly following ai". If you are unfamiliar with an area, hence why you are using gps, then it is reasonable that someone does not know a street is a one way and it may not be immediately evident. Add time of day or inclimate weather to the situation and things can get bad quickly.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoI suppose, though I was thinking of the “dark storm” example… which sounds like almost literally following gps blind. That’s the situation drivers ed teaches you to pull over and wait. Even one way… maybe you can make the case that the city isn’t labeling roads well, but when in doubt there are other cues like parked cars and the direction other road signs face. These are problems that also predate gps. If a passenger told me that it wasn't a one-way and they were wrong, it’s not the passenger’s fault when it comes to legality, it almost always falls on the operator.
- cpuguy83 5y agoYes you are right that is literally following gps blindly, and probably people should pull over.
