LOL, true! We have that too, but not quite as bad as over there, thankfully!
I'm not really good with voices in the car — I always turn the GPS vocal off, as I can check the screen, dammit! I'm usually already doing or aware of what they want me to do, but this voice was separate from the GPS and as I wasn't familiar with the car I don't know if it had an off button. Your story made me LOL too — sounds like the kind of thing I'd yell back too!
Oh yeah, it's crazy. The last thing you expect is the wipers coming on when you need an indicator!
Yeah, I'm not sure if it was accidental or what, but thankfully most people here are not litigious, because it's not something we're used to, but I can bet a lot of people would be lining up for refunds!!!
