I believe there was one a few years ago...or the other way around.

The linked article cites two previous instances of people ending up in Sydney, NS when they wanted "the other one" - one British, and curiously another Dutch one.

Didn't read the link but I think there was some elderly lady who did it a few years back. Made me chuckle then as well. :D

I heard this one on the radio so I didn't read.

I do remember I had major doubts about a previous example and posting all the reasons for my disbelief. But it may have been on a different forum.

A quick google trying to find it shows an Italian example so not just Dutch and Brits. :lol:

Reminds me of the student tourists who set their GPS for North Stradbroke island in Australia - and followed it faithfully, driving straight into the ocean :lol:
