A driver in Utah got stuck on a dirt road on a Utah mountain after Google led him there on a “shortcut,” authorities said.
The driver, who was identified only as a 23-year-old man, and his Toyota Tercel became stuck Thursday on the west side of Strawberry Peak, Wasatch County Search & Rescue said in a statement Saturday.
“This was the shortcut that Google recommended between Springville and Vernal,” officials said.
The driver was uninjured, but search-and-rescue responded and helped him off the mountain. The rescue took three hours, officials said.
Wasatch County is about 100 miles southeast of Salt Lake City.
