Google street view car thingy

[diy_fun_uk]

Pretty sure I saw one of these in my cul-de-sac today, just caught a glimpse as it went out of sight.

If that's what it was, first time my street's been done in 15 years!

And, to cap it off, a blo0dy car was parked in front of my front garden!!!

A first world moan/problem? Yep, but given the front of my house is frequently devoid of anything parked, I'm not happy

I like to do somthing silly so the camera catches it when I see it out and about.
I read a funny story, a bloke was in his front garden weeding when one went by so as it was a dead end he know it had to come back se he grabbed his mrs and did a bent over dip kiss thing and waited -- and waited - the car came past but it later transpired that it had already filmed the street on its way down and all it got was him pulling up weeds.

They usually blur anyone caught on camera . Street view shows latest view and lists all previous recordings.

I went to look at a property in Holland Park years ago. The prospective purchaser commented to the agent, that it was blank on Streetview. He replied that there was a Safe House next door, and that there were a few in the area, all with the same cctv. We didn't believe it, then noticed it did have high walls and Venetian blinds on all the windows.

I waved at it when it was passing my house. I’m there for posterity.

My mate was on it, flicking them the bird.

Some years back I used streetview to check out an area where I'd been asked to quote on a job. I knew it wasn't a good area but streetview confirmed that the address was in one of the worst parts. Cars in gardens up on bricks, run down houses, there was a family of 4 walking along the road, overweight, tattoos everywhere, and their faces were blurred as you'd expect, what made me chuckle was they had a couple of dogs with them, possibly Staffys but more likely something more vicious, and they blurred the faces on the dogs as well.

Think this is Mottie when he caught up with that bloke.

Lucky for him, I never caught up with him once he started running!
