Before I start, no, I dont drink copious amounts of booze before leaving the office each day....

Anyway....

Noticed that when I leave work for the day, I get to a certain place on the road, and my Lumia 520 reboots.  Its happened to be 3x in a row this week....  now, it could be doing this everyday but I dont always have music playing, which is when I notice it...

1st couple times I noticed I just put it down to a random reboot - but then when its done it to me 3x in a row.... always around the same time of the day in the same spot (give or take 2-3m).

What the heck could cause this ? I dont have anything "unusual" on my phone that Im aware of that would cause such a odd issue.

Im going to watch my phone around the same time today and see if its a time or location related - I wont be out of the office at usual time...

May be completely irrelevant, but what time does your phone do updates (Settings>Phone updates)?

With regard to location - I've seen strong radio transmitters scramble up phones before (talking distances of less than a meter and many watts of RF though).

You have found the portal to another dimension.It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the......

what carrier are you using?  wonder if there is some cell tower that has some different software ultimately causing problems..
