Woman hit by car sues Google Maps

Is this sillier, less silly, or about as silly as the McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit? Discuss.

Google Maps Lawsuit: Woman Follows Directions, Gets Run Over

When Google Maps‘ walking directions instructed Lauren Rosenberg to walk along a very busy highway with no pedestrian walkway, she followed the directions exactly. Unfortunately, she was hit by a car in the process. Now she’s suing Google for damages, Search Engine Land reports.

Sounds reasonable to me....but then again I'm the kind of guy who walks into McDonald praying to God I slip on a wet floor and hit my head, only to wake up a millionaire....and (like Ron White says), you'll know the day that happens because you won't see my ass around here again. I'll be in Palm Springs with my NEW friends. 8) :shock: :lol:
