Too much reliance on Google Maps resulted in a tourist group from Hyderabad driving into a pond near here at Kurupunthura in the wee hours on Saturday.

The four youths from Hyderabad had visited the picturesque hill station destination at Munnar and were driving to the famed boating destination at Alappuzha.

The incident occurred around 3 a.m. when the youths, en route to Alappuzha, used Google Maps to navigate.
