Its amazing and high resolution. You can see people up to no good in bedroom windows in your own street! Not in my street though. All boring around here...

They just finished every SINGLE road in the UK.

My street as seen by the google car...
(my house has a black van and a huge supermarket car park)

Zoom right in then drag the little yellow man to your street...

No they haven't - many places are still missing - it is amazing though.

We've used this many times to scout ahead to see if there are curb cuts and sidewalks. Very useful, but not quite as useful if when clicking for directions there was a "powerchair" option in addition to driving/biking/walking/public transit.
