Train coils a car and driver blames the GPS


A vehicle fell by mistake on the rails of a train. His driver could do little to get him out of there. Minutes later the presence of a railroad was noticed. The impact was inevitable.
The accident occurred the night of this last Sunday in the city of Ashland, state of Virginia (USA). The driver of the car had made the mistake of getting on the train rails just as he was trying to turn a corner. The vehicle ended up broken and unable to move. The police and some courses approached the place to help him.

Blame the GPS. According to local media reports, the driver blamed the GPS navigator for having performed this maneuver, since he had indicated that he should double at that time. The authorities advised the train line that it would circulate around the place to stop, but it was in vain.

The driver had already got out of the car and so there were no victims to mourn. Your vehicle was towed the next day. Neighbors in the area point out that similar accidents have already occurred in that area, many of them also caused by the confusion caused by some cartographic applications.

Google Maps shows how Dubai has changed in the last 30 years

Google Maps, through a video on YouTube, shows part of that change. From being a land dominated by desert sands alone, it is now an area plagued by constructions around the Persian Gulf. Even today, it has up to two artificial islands, which in the late 1980s did not exist. The YouTube video in Timelapse format shows the evolution of Dubai from 1984 to 2016. _________________ Dubai es uno de los lugares que más ha cambiado en las últimas décadas.

The Ghost of Pablo Escobar / El Fantasma de Pablo Escobar

Imagen
El fantasma de Pablo Escobar Una usuaria de Facebook llamada María del Mar publicó una imagen que parece mostrar el fantasma del fundador y máximo líder del Cartel de Medellín, Pablo Escobar, en la terraza del edificio donde vivió antes de su muerte. En la imagen, tomada a principios de esta semana, la figura fantasma se ve escalofriantemente similar a Escobar y parece tener su característico bigote y su misma barriga. “Sé que no suelo publicar mucho, pero esto fue algo que me sorprendió mucho y no sé qué pensar”, escribió María del Mar en la descripción de la imagen. “Tomé una foto a este edificio y cuando la acerqué vi una figura humana. No sé si sea mi imaginación por saber la historia de este edificio, pero la verdad no sé qué pensar en este momento.” Lo que no pensó María del Mar es que su imagen se convertiría en todo un fenómeno viral en Internet, compartida a través de las redes sociales y publicada en los principales medios de comunicación. Son muchos los int...
