Liberal Democrat Shadow Transport Secretary Norman Baker has tabled an Early Day Motion calling for urgent action to protect communities from poor sat-nav routing.
The Parliamentary motion calls for the Government to regulate sat-navs to ensure that they take into account the height, width and length of the vehicle before selecting a route. If the Government adopts the idea, this could mean an end to sat-navs mistakenly directing lorries down unsuitable roads.
