Oct. 21, 2009 - PRLog -- As a leading supplier of sat nav products in the UK, The Navigation Company is one firm that has contributed to the rise in the number of young drivers using satellite navigation solutions. The firm also specialises in a range of handheld navigation and motorbike navigation, while also featuring a range of leading brands, including Navman, Garmin, Mio and, of course, Tom-Tom, at fantastic prices.

A spokesperson from the firm said, “Given the technology age in which we live, it is hardly surprising that 59 per-cent of young drivers have become reliant on satellite navigation. In fact, the research showed that only 17 per-cent of drivers over 65 are using such products, showing that there is a generational sat nav age gap. Here at The Navigation Company, we understand that many young drivers would find it quite difficult to conceive life without satellite navigation, as these products really have become so vital in everyday life.”

The research also found that 80 per-cent of drivers describe their experiences with satellite navigation products as positive, helping them reach their destination quickly and reliably.

The spokesperson added, “While our website highlights our wide range of products, our customer services team can also help you to find the satnav that is right for you. You can call us on 0844 3711938.”
