Google Street View Captures Image of Burning House, Moves Along

According to Nicholas Carlson at Valleywag, Google Street View captured a nifty shot of a burning home while riding through some place called Eagle Point Drive in some magical land called Sherwood, Arkansas. After coming across the blaze, the driver (allegedly) kept driving. The Google Prius (presumably) was "making the rounds in the neighborhood that day," but then drove "past the burning home, taking its assigned pictures." Aw. Then again, the fiery picture is most spectacular. Good job, photog.

Hot damn. That driver should have hopped out of the Pious and gotten in the way of the firefighters on the scene. Sheesh.

 

Yeah, what's the big deal? You can see fire trucks in the picture. Why shouldn't the driver have kept on driving?

 

imagine what happens when they invite people over and people check google maps to find directions.

 

Yeah, if my house is on fire, DO NOT INVADE MY PRIVACY AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. It's none of the god-damned government's business. I don't want Big Brother hosing down all my stuff.

 

Not as pleasant as the Google Street View boob flasher image that's been going around the interweb.
