A certain Lauren Rosenberg (Lauren Rosenberg) is suing Google because the route calculated by Google Maps on her Blackberry smartphone took her to the highway where she was hit by a car. The size of the claim to the Internet giant must cover its medical expenses of $ 100,000. With the driver who hit her car, as you know, she is also suing. (I think she also applied for the Darwin Award).
And although Google Maps warns that pedestrian routes are in beta testing and sometimes show routes without crosswalks and sidewalks, it is not displayed on mobile devices. It would hardly have helped, although it would remove the responsibility from Google.
PS: Comments to the news show that foreign people still have logic. And here is the work of a lawyer. I remember a fragment from the movie "Liar Liar", where Jimm Carrey (a lawyer) convinces a client: - You are the victim. These circumstances forced you to change your husband and surrender into the hands of this man ... - Seven ... - What? “Seven people ...”
