It would appear that the folks doing Google’s Street View will use all of the images that they can get their hands on, regardless of content. And now, along with a man robbing a house and a patron walking into a porno shop, they’ve managed to hit and kill a fawn.
Should you find yourself using Street View to observe Five Points Road in Rush, NY you’ll see an image of the fawn in question running out in front of the car, and subsequently lying dead (still on one piece, thankfully) on the side of the road. Notably, that’s the last of the data for that road as they reportedly pulled over.
We can’t help but wonder why they didn’t just use this data? Sure, there’s an astronomical number of pictures that these folks have to go through and add to each region, but don’t you think this is something the drivers would have mentioned? Surely, it had to be more obvious to the driver than the “hot babes” truck.
