What travelers say:

Self-driving South Australia is a very hard journey, today we set off from Port Lincoln to Adelaide at around 2 pm, the whole 652 km, 7 hours self-driving drive, is expected to arrive at the destination a little more than 9 pm. Originally thought it was just a mediocre return journey, but let me encounter the most bizarre trip since the beginning of the trip. At 2 pm, pack up the bags and drive from Port Lincoln to Port Augusta, along the route given by the navigation, no abnormality; I was busy with my work and had no mood to look out over the roadside. We arrived at Port Augusta before seven o'clock in the evening. Take a short break and see that it’s just 7 o’clock, and we’re in a hurry to drive straight from Augusta to Adelaide, and if all goes well, we’ll arrive at our destination by 11 o’clock. But it was at the last 330 kilometers that something strange happened: I followed the navigation and drove on Augusta Hwy, and my class time was up again, and after I ordered Mr. Tea to drive carefully, I started burying my head in the back seat to give classes to my students. After a little hour, the course ended, with a little rest time, I looked up outside the car, it was dark, not even a street light. "It's really a place with a lot of people, the local government is too economical, there are no street lights, and I am not afraid of a car accident at night." I mumbled while clicking on my mobile phone and planned to see where I went, but when I opened the electronic map, But the red arrows on the map representing our coordinates have been spinning in place, not moving at all, and the distance from the destination has always been the same kilometer and time. "Isn't the phone broken?" I looked at the front driver, the companion silently driving the car, the engine rumbled, the dashboard showed the speed of 110 miles; I glanced at the navigation device next to it, and found that the arrow above was also spinning in place; The car window was dark, making people inexplicably disturbed, the dazzling red on the mobile phone and the navigation device seemed to indicate what? I picked up the mobile phone to confirm the mobile phone signal, normal; again click the map to confirm the location, the red arrow unscrupulously swirled in place; Change a map software, still so... "Do you see if the wrong road?", "Is this map a problem, how to show that we have been in place?" I was full of expectations as the driver Mr. Tea could give me a normal answer, but he did not say a word. I looked forward at the headlights, the straight road was endless, no car, no back car, no sound except the roar of the car. Watching the signs on the road galloping backwards, we stayed on the map. I looked helplessly out the window, suddenly, a white signpost flashed through my eyes, "D, E, A, D............", mother, am I dazzled, or do I really have this signpost? In the face of this insoluble situation, huge panic poured into my heart. "Hey, you say something, we seem to be in trouble now, the map shows we have been in place!" I amplified the voice to Mr. Tea. He turned his head slightly, revealing a small half-side face, and returned to me with a low voice: "Why don't we talk?" The cold light of the dashboard reflected on his face, cold, not human. "This is not his voice, what to do? What to do?" I am in class time, continue to class, ignore him..." Don't talk, I am going to class." I hurried to open the computer, secretly glanced at, He had silently turned his head to look ahead. "Don't think more, don't think more, start class..." originally forty minutes a class, I dragged it for fifty minutes... During the period, I kept checking the map and checking the route, but everything did not change, the car was driving, but we were still spinning in place. Just in the moment I was about to collapse, a headlight suddenly flashed on my face, I looked out the window, the car was sinking? A burst of ecstasy poured into my heart, looked down at the map, and finally, after the car drove out of Port Augusta for three hours, the map inexplicably returned to normal, The little red arrows on our behalf began to move smoothly toward my destination, and I tried to talk to Mr.Tea a few words, the strange and low tone disappeared, and the person I knew returned. It was only then that my heartbeat on the verge of bursting began to slow down... at 12:30 that night , after 5 and a half hours, we finally arrived at the Adelaide hotel. It was only less than 4 hours by car, but we spent more than 5 hours. As for the extra 1 and a half hours, I really don't know what happened...until I returned to the country, Staying in my own stable nest, I just mentioned the pen and recorded this shocking trip in South Australia.
