BELMONT, Mass. A woman and her two children, ages 7 and 10, narrowly escaped serious injury when a train smashed into their minivan after a GPS device led the driver onto MBTA train tracks Tuesday night.
The woman was driving southbound on Brighton Street shortly before 9 p.m. when the GPS device directed her to make a right turn which placed her vehicle directly onto railroad tracks.
Apparently the woman was unable to drive off the tracks, forcing her to flee the vehicle with her children.
Shortly thereafter, an MBTA Fitchburg bound commuter rail train carrying 70 passengers slammed into the minivan. Nobody was injured in the collision either on or off the train.
No information was given as to why the woman could not drive off the tracks nor was there a reason given as to why she couldn't see that she was driving onto them in the first place.

You should follow orders without question.
A nation of technology dependent morons.
Oh, yeah “The GPS did it”. I bet.
Lemme guess:
A. She was talking on her cell phone.
B. She was texting.
Let me guess. Obama supporter and wants to get PAID by the evil white man that owns the train that ran into her van. Unless you are blind or drunk how could you NOT tell you were driving onto railroad tracks. First clue - if you what looks like railroad ties and rails and the ride suddenly gets real bumpy you might be on railroad tracks
Apparently the woman was unable to drive off the tracks. Really. Suicide attempt.
A Low Information Voter following the direction of “Superior” intellect. No surprise here.
Something smells very fishy about that story.
Suspicions of her being an Obama voter...arise from the depths.
I forgot ALSO paid by the evil white mn that invented the GPS device and built the satellites too.
Too dumb for words.
I’d like to see a photo of the woman to confirm my suspicions...
I predict a lawsuit against the GPS manufacturer.
Bet she votes Rat.
She was too busy texting on her cellphone.
Only time a government mandated safety device deployed correctly!!!!!!!!!!!!! BUHAHAHAHA
