Talking Google now has Road Kill view !!!

Here's a sad one: the Google Maps car took out a baby deer, and it recorded the entire process for all Google Maps users to see.

As you follow the street view scene down Five Points Road in Rush, NY, you can see the deer run out in front of the car, get hit and then see it on the side of the road before the car pulls over. And that's the end of the Street View data for Five Points Road.

check out the link

Google Maps

UPDATE: Google took down the pictures but I save them scroll down

We're sorry, street view is currently unavailable due to high demand.

Tragedy has struck though. In upstate New York, a street view car hit a baby deer on Five Points Road - and then recorded the whole thing on Google Maps. Nobody noticed until, well, someone noticed, prompting a Daily What blog post, floods of traffic, and then a sequence of five street-level pictures being removed from the site.

Google replied: "The driver was understandably upset, and promptly stopped to alert the local police and the Street View team at Google. The deer was able to move and had left the area by the time the police arrived. The police explained to our driver that, sadly, this was not an uncommon occurrence in the region - the New York State Department of Transportation estimates that 60,000-70,000 deer collisions happen per year in New York alone -- and no police report needed to be filed."

They then proceeded to dish out some road safety advice: don't swerve, brake until the very last second before impact and if you do hit a deer, don't try to touch it. Just so you know.
