The researchers tested various ways that drivers follow directions (or try to) from GPS units. The researchers main argument was to not use the "docile driver" model. The "docile driver" model is where the driver unquestioningly follows the directions given by the GPS. They want to develop a way for the GPS to aid in driving while letting the drivers use their own knowledge of the routes and surrounding environment.
The researchers recorded video sessions of the driver and listened in on the recorded audio as well to see how the driver reacted. Some of the drivers followed the GPS directions to a T, while others did not. These results were subjected and qualitative.
The work to me was odd. I never really thought about reworking the GPS model, it usually seemed to work for me. I have had trouble in the past, especially with construction since the GPS may or may not know about some construction in a given area, thus giving directions to a route that may not be the best for reaching a certain destination. I wouldn't really consider this a novel idea. While it is new, it's not worth much in my eyes. There seems to be little to none applications for this.
