The New "Grandma" In The Car..

These days, i am usually on the move to deliver stuffs, attend meetings etc.. So, to help me find my way around Singapore, hubby got me a new GPS that is a lot easier to use compared to the older one we have.. 


What i want to blog about this GPS is not about whatever super high tech function it has.. But it has this super tok-kong feature that will repeat and repeat itself once you exceeds the road speed limit for that particular road. 
  
For instance, if this particular stretch of road is 60km/h, the moment the vehicle goes at 61km/h, this machine will keep nagging "PLEASE SLOW DOWN!! PLEASE SLOW DOWN!! PLEASE SLOW DOWN!! " until you reduce speed to 60km/h.. And if you choose to ignore it, it will speak louder and louder and louder until you bo-pian have to slow down..

Samuel says we got a grandma in the car, except grandma will go "Don't drive so fast" whereas this machine-grandma is more polite and it uses a "PLEASSSSSE".. 

And when hubby drives, he never fails to "quarrel" with the machine-grandma cos he thinks it is just too IRRITATING.. Worse than his wife cos the wife don't even say a single thing where the machine-grandma "nags" at him to slow down.. And today i heard hubby telling it to "shut up otherwise i smack you!!!"  hahaha..
