I'm going to sue thehelper for getting negative rep.

I wonder how recent that caution message is.

it was there on the maps I printed out over a month ago, so well before this

not only that, but you can use google "street view" to see if there are sidewalks or not and if it looks safe or not

also one of the best quotes from the responses there

Once you make something idiot proof god then makes a better idiot.

I think I have to agree, as I have yet to find anything completely idiot proof

 

[T.s.e]

Idiotic woman. She's a danger to society.

$100.000 dollars? That's pennies for google.

Knowing Google, they will just buy the U.S. Government, and then shut them down because they are a "competitor." Then this women will be out of luck. Then they will buy Mac and Microsoft, and overthrow Asia with the leftover money. I think they are getting board.

Bored, but a government run by Google doesn't sound too bad. I mean, they have a team dedicated to JUST their front page. Imagaine how efficient the world would be?!

$100.000 dollars? That's pennies for google.

except that it would be 1000 times that for "pain and suffering", and also set a standard and open them up for future attacks in court - precedents exist in the U.S. system

Bumping for Great Justice! You never hear about this kind of stuff happening anymore so I guess the software has advanced a little
