Satnav error "destroys village"

I think this report in the Metro may just err on the side of overstatement.

"A lorry driver has wrecked a tiny village after his sat nav sent him the wrong way."

"...As the driver tried to negotiate his way along the village's small roads he caused chaos, demolishing a lamp post, destroying hedgerows and [w]alls and causing a four hour traffic jam when he finally got stuck."
