    Technology has claimed its second victim in as many weeks. Not long after the Segway Company owner plummeted to his not-so poetic death (he was attached to a Segway at the time), a Spanish man has perished after plunging his Peugeot into a reservoir, at the instruction of his GPS. Maybe he had the Yoda voice activated?

    The passenger in the vehicle at the time survived the incident with light bruising.

    Perhaps the GPS manufacturer could slap a “Deus Ex Machina” disclaimer on the side of the box?
