G.P.S.

Many people have begun to depend entirely on a G.P.S. to get to their destination.  There are people who cannot get around their hometown without a G.P.S. because they have grown up with it since they began driving.  G.P.S.'s were designed to help aid with directions, not completely diminish the need for a sense of direction.

On top of this, it is a major distraction to drivers.  Every G.P.S. informs its users that it is dangerous to operate them while driving, but most drivers to not heed this warning.  Just as with texting and driving, operating a G.P.S. while driving takes the driver's eyes off the road.  Even if this lose of concentration only lasts for a split second, it can still cause an accident.
