In Season Four of the United States’ “The Office”, Michael Scott is driving with Dwight Schrute. The GPS says to make a right turn, while Dwight says that the GPS means to “bear right” because there’s a lake directly to their right. Of course Michael ignores Dwight, remarking that the machine knows where it’s going, and immediately plows into a lake. Only once in the lake, and abandoning the car, does the GPS helpfully say to make a U-turn.
