Google sued after map directions lead to accident

If google had told her to jump off a cliff she probably would have done that too.

Honestly this just sounds like a law suit ploy. I mean who is stupid enough to cross a busy street without looking?

Here's the route in questin, if anyone wants to see it.

If you use the google street cam you can see there is a grass shoulder, so why the hell was she walking where she could get hit?

At first I thought she was walking across a Highway with no shoulder( we have several in Florida).

I burnt my crotch when i spilled McDonalds hot coffee in my lap the other day while flipping off a school short bus going too slow. Im suing McDonalds for the coffee, the school system for not having buses that can corner at speed, and Levis for not protecting my nads!
