Because the Garmin GPS system ...
... is leading some drivers ... straight into a dead end. ...
The electronic maps don't show a gate that separates residential and industrial areas. It's only opened for a couple hours on weekdays in the northern New Jersey city.

This has led to a call for Open Source GPS databases.
