A delivery driver from Great Britain got stuck with his car on The Broomway, considered the most dangerous road in the country, after following the wrong directions from the GPS system.


The route, an old path of 600 years that crosses shifting sands and marshy land towards Foulness Island, is located in a Ministry of Defence firing range and is recommended exclusively for pedestrians accompanied by guides. Although the road is known for its extreme risks, with history recording over 100 deaths over the centuries, the incident only resulted in the vehicle being stuck, with authorities reminding the importance of caution when using digital navigation on special routes.
