The first signs of the invetible robot takeover
Couple stranded for 3 days after GPS leads them astray
To be fair...they should know to use common sense. How many times have you been told by your GPS to turn onto a non-existent road? Hell, whenever I use Mapquest or Google Maps, the damn site tells me to drive to the end of my street (which has been a "no exit" street for over 15 years now) and through some bushes, a length of chain, and a sidewalk into the middle of the main road.
In the words of the Sheriff investigating the case: ""It will give you options to pick the shortest route. You certainly get the shortest route. But it may not be a safe route."
Or, in a more Patton Oswalt-esque sense: get ready for Murder GPS: The GPS that Murders You. Coming soon.

An attempt at winter poetry
Timmy wanted a shiny new toy
Since he had been a good little boy
On Christmas morning he was surprised to find
That aliens were in control of his parents minds
And in the process of enslaving the human race
