15 weird road signs from around the world {Gadling}
Feb 4th 2011 4:34AM Never trust your GPS!
Too often drivers have blind faith in the directions given by GPS systems, resulting in lorry drivers following a route that has signs saying "Unsuitable for large vehicles". Then getting stuck in a narrow road.
On the BBC web site today there was a story about a car driver making a turn which was prohibited by road signs, resulting in the death of a passenger.

Can this chicken bus make it across a waterfall? {Gadling}
Jan 23rd 2011 6:47PM Don't think I would like to take that bus route to home!
Though isn't it driving over a weir or dam, as waterfalls are natural.

New airport threat: killer electric carts? {Gadling}
May 6th 2010 5:44PM The design of those electric carts is at fault, as it allows someone to accidentally put an object on the accelerator pedal.
Also seems a poor layout where the cart goes across the pedestrian walkway.
Kulula-air tries not to take itself too seriously {Gadling}

Certainly a nice paint job. :)
But why does the one side show the "secret agent code", which is a Czeck Republic callsign, while the other has the South African ZS-ZWP?
Fancy breakfast with the giraffes? {Gadling}
Dec 27th 2008 4:39AM While you can see giraffees at Longleat Park, it is not a national park.
It is one of a number of Safari Parks that are around the United Kingdom, which are home to many foreign animals.
National Parks are areas of natural landscape.
