A Michigan man is sick of cars driving on his lawn.
James Campbell, a Southfield, Michigan resident and homeowner, told WXYZ Detroit on Tuesday that he witnesses cars arrive at his house via a GPS error, hit a dead end, then drive across his lawn to leave on a near-daily basis.
“They’re on the grass and then they pull right through, right where we’re standing here,” Campbell said.
“The few I’ve been able to stop and ask, ‘Hey, what are you doing?’ It’s always, ‘Well, my GPS said to go this way.’ And I’m like, ‘Dude, if the GPS told you to drive into the Detroit River, are you still going to drive into the Detroit River? It’s obviously grass, this is obviously a driveway,'” Campbell added.
This conundrum might seem funny for those whose lawn isn’t being driven across. But it’s no laughing matter for Campbell, who has to worry about his two children under the age of five playing outside when one of these drivers inevitably arrives.
One GPS has Campbell’s driveway as a through road, which leads to many of these mix-ups. The issue seems especially prevalent with Uber drivers.
“I just hope Uber fixes the GPS, whatever they need to do to get that working where it does not let this private drive show up as an actual road to get anywhere,” Campbell said.
It’s easy to understand why Campbell and his family are frustrated that this keeps happening, given that it puts his children and his lawn in jeopardy.
