Pier Pressure
Remember the "good old days" when we were kids. We did something because someone told us too. Our parents responded with "if they told you to jump off a pier - would you"?
Lady down in the US is suing Google Maps. Apparently she has a smart phone and used it to access Google Maps to get walking instructions from Point A to Point B. The map told her to...walk right across a busy multi lane road without proper sidewalks or pedestrian controls. The lemming that she is, she blithely and obliviously crosses the road and...yes...gets hit by a car. Somehow, this is Google's fault? Goodness gracious, how did she ever make it to adulthood if she was not capable of formulating a logical thought such as "it is REALLY a good idea to cross the street"?
