"We had a fellow trapped in there just on Friday night after his car became bogged. He saw a snake, a goat and a fox, and he was too scared to get out of the car," Mildura police Inspector Simon Clemence said Tuesday.

These people have still been rescuable. But we've just had a 46C day (115 degrees F). If they were out there in that temperature and out of phone range, they would have been in serious trouble," he said.


Here I thought the Prius had the worse GPS....I never saw a snake, a goat, or a fox......but I did discover a dead end in Butt F nowhere once.....I guess I need to move to Australia.
