RIDICULOUS! Woman Sues Google For Bad Walking Directions After She Was Hit By A Car Cause She Wasn't Paying Attention - [Video Inside]!!

PARK CITY, Utah (ABC 4 News)- A California woman is suing Google for $100,000 after she was hit by a car, while using a Google map. She began her route on Daley Avenue. She typed where she wanted to go into her blackberry, but only got one-half mile down the road before she was hit by a car.

Rosenberg was struck by the vehicle on Deer Valley Drive, a heavily traveled road, but what people can’t believe is that she was hit just feet away from an embankment over-looking a nearby walking path.

Joan Rosen says, “You are responsible for your own self when you are walking across the street. Forget about Google and anybody else.”

She was using Google Maps to direct her to Prospector Avenue, a two mile walk. Now she wants the company of Google to pay for her injuries claiming that the map led her down a path that was not reasonably safe for pedestrians.

Carleen Reilly says, “What a stupid thing? That is so stupid. Google is set up for cars, not walking people.”

Morton Rosen says, “Google’s the world. You’re going to China and you’re going to ask Google to give you a specific directions about somewhere. It’s ludicrous. The woman has to take responsibility for her own actions.”

It’s a lawsuit that has yet to be heard in court, but it’s one that’s shocking to those who live in Park City.

Rosenberg’s Utah County attorney declined to speak with ABC4 tonight, but Google released a statement saying all of their software comes with a disclaimer warning pedestrians that some paths may not include sidewalks.
