Halfords Digital Expert, Nik Dix said: "Sat Navs have become a vital aid for millions of motorists, helping to navigate journeys, saving time, money and fuel. Motorists who already own a sat nav are able to update mapping software on their existing units to take into account any changes to the road network. We strongly advise motorists to do this.
