Sat Nav Lorry Driver Blocks Road

Sat Nav Lorry Driver Blocks Road

Published: 25th April 2008 | Author: BBC News Online

A road in Cumbria has been blocked by an articulated lorry, after the driver said he followed sat nav directions.

Redbank Road, a minor route between Grasmere and Langdale, is closed after the 45ft (13.7m) vehicle became stuck.

The incident happened late at night, and initial attempts to remove the lorry from the steep, winding road were unsuccessful.

Drivers were advised to take alternative routes, and the lorry has now been moved.
