Typical newspaper story from Iceland
"A 67-year old German woman, Doris Kolberg, walked 60km in 14 hours to seek help. The car she and her husband were driving malfunctioned in the Icelandic outback two nights ago. The couple was driving near Herdubreidarlindir, north Iceland, when their car became stuck in a river. Water entered the engine so that the car stalled and they sere unable to call for help, as there is no mobile phone service in the area. Consequently Kolberg decided to set off on foot, walking for 14 hours until she reached the Ring Road at 6am. There she managed to flag down a vehicle driven by a farmer in the area. In an interview Kolberg was remarkably upbeat and claimed she was not at all tired from the walk, only a little stiff. "
