Redundant trig point

Displaced by GPS and mobile phones.  Well not actually displaced physically as photgraphed, more just allegedly redundant-like 'displaced'.  Although it should really have been positioned in the middle of a road to attract attention to GPS-drivers who don't see road signs or give way markings and nearly kill people.  Can it be true that driving tests are to include a section on how to use GPS?  Surely driving tests need to include sections on how to drive WITHOUT a satnav.  I wonder if, when we get driverless cars, they'll be more reliable than mobile phones (unless you buy your car from Carphone Warehouse OL!).
