A FRENCH lorry driver became a victim of a satnav mishap this morning.

His 42-tonne lorry became firmly wedged in a narrow country lane at Scammonden, after he followed the electronic navigation instructions.

The vehicle also demolished part of a drystone wall in New Lane, Scammonden, and left the road completely blocked.  

Police said recovery crews were on their way to try and help the stricken driver.
