Google made her do it
« on: May 31, 2010, 08:29:08 PM »
A woman is suing Google because she walked into traffic and got hit by a car. It's all the fault of Google Maps. :rolleyes:

Stories here and here.

Some folks are just stuck on stupid. And greedy.

It's "Why can't I go in the back of the bus with cruise control on...?" and "Why can't I put a poodle in the microwave to dry...?" all over again...

Reminds me of the couple who were driving with GPS directions and mindlessly turned left - into a lake.

Technology does not allow one to disconnect their brain - if they have one.
