You Can Now Get A SatNav Voiced By Morgan Freeman

He has the most perfect voice for it

Ellen Tannam

In the modern world, we’re growing increasingly reliant on technology to help us cope with everyday situations.

Satellite navigation systems in cars are one such technological crush that most of us need to make unfamiliar journeys, and the voice of the person giving you directions has a huge effect on how enjoyable the experience is.

This is why the news (reported by Time)that Morgan Freeman being added to Google’s navigation app Waze is so delightful. What better man to help us traverse difficult country roads or scary roundabouts? His calming dulcet tones would be so relaxing in heavily gridlocked traffic.

The collaboration is a marketing tie-in for the upcoming film, London Has Fallen where he plays the vice-president of America, and he addresses you, the driver, as the president. Sounds pretty slick to us.

Have a watch of the video below, and just imagine Morgan Freeman telling you to turn right to get to Supermac’s.
