Interesting, I'll have to check out the app. I have a laminated map and GPS, but my GPS seems to fail more often than it works.

From a newbies perspective, the area between Chase and Farm is tricky because the open water is in the rock zone. I could see the natural inclination to go there. Plus, approaching 19 Mile Bay, people are kinda focused on getting there for their gas or shopping. The "Point A to Point B" mentality that we tend to have when driving our cars.

I think the formula for accidents is fairly clear in this case...
