OFFICIAL ANSWER: Dweebs who use GPS. Real men and women use maps. Maps tell you how you get somewhere and many ways to get out.
GPS is for dunces who don't have a clue.
If GPS tells one of its sheep to drive off a bridge, the poor soul will drive off a bridge, and the other sheep will act like that one was crazy, even though they would do the same thing.
So if GPS tells you to drive off a cliff, you GPS people will drive off a cliff. If everyone else drives off a cliff, would you drive off a cliff? Yeah, you would, you GPS users.
Sheep. Let me hear you "Baaaa".

Catman has never understood the point of GPS for civilian use.

Catman has never understood the point of GPS for civilian use. Obviously you have never rented a car in a foreign country.

Obviously you have never rented a car in a foreign country. You are incorrect in that assumption. Ok, but I'm surprised. To me having interactive driving directions is a great time saver. Sure, you can do it with paper maps, but if you take a wrong turn it can be costly. Sometimes you have to drive 5 or 10 minutes to turn around or take an alternate route, often needing to pull over the side of the road to plan your next move. Some countries have bewildering combinations of roundabouts and crazy ramps that noodle about in various directions. I have a good sense of direction (at least a lot better than my wife's), but I can get lost. Someone with a very poor sense of direction can find a GPS very useful, yes?

I am not a sheep, I don't use GPS, and I don't even have a smartphone, but I will gladly 'Baaaaa'.

Maps? Pffffttt. Every 10 miles, I get out and put my ear to the ground. At night I follow the North Star.

It is always five miles to my left, then turn left.

If only your integrity was not so much of a joke.
