Woman drives car into ditch after following Google Maps
A woman took a wrong turn and drove her high-end car into a ditch in Navi Mumbai while following directions on Google Maps and was later rescued, police said on Sunday.
The incident took place at around 1 am on Friday in Belapur area of Maharashtra's Navi Mumbai township.
The woman, who was the sole occupant of the Audi car, instead of taking the Bay bridge, took a wrong turn after being guided by Google Maps and reached Dhruvtara Jetty, and the vehicle fell into a ditch, a Belapur police official said.
After being alerted, police reached the spot.
The police, with the help of a marine security team, their boat and local authorities, later rescued the woman, the official said.
The woman, who runs a salon business in Navi Mumbai's Kharghar area, was heading home to Ulwe from Belapur in her car when the incident occurred, the official said.
