Google Gives in to Complaints and Removes Offensive Images From Street View
Posted 03/24/09 at 05:02:22 PM by Andy Salisbury
Google has been known for putting some pictures on Street View that probably don’t belong there. But, it looks like the software giant is playing nice with folks that were offended, and removing them completely.
According to a spokesperson with Google, anyone that makes a request to have an image removed could very well make that happen. And what about the photos that have already been deleted? “We've got millions of images, so the percentage removed was very small,” said Google’s Laura Scott. “We want this to be a useful tool, and it's people's right to have their image removed.”
Google maintains that they only display images that are visible by public thoroughfares.

The car accident in itself is not offensive unless somebody died or was very seriously injured, then it may be inappropriate. It could also be publically embarassing to have an accident you were involved in plastered accross the internet.
A car accident is offensive?
