WARNING!

A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD
TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION.

CAUTION

When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show
the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the
waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not
only take advantage of all available navigation tools when traveling to a
waypoint, but will also visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the
waypoint is always available.

WARNING!

When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely
responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle
operators must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving,
boating or flying conditions at all times. An accident or collision
resulting in damage to property, personal injury or death could occur if
the operator of a GPS-equipped vehicle fails to pay full attention to
travel conditions and vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion.
