This picture now has more hits than the rest of my pics combined. Funny stuff. I'm not sure why she got the ticket, but the speed limit here is less than most people think and there are semi-hidden stop signs all over the place. She may have just been pulled over because of that contraption on top of the car.

Anyway, thanks for all the comments. You can click on the map link to see exactly where this took place.

I always thought "RED" cars get pulled over before any others, think the Cop saw the large camera - or just pulled them over because the car is red?

Great shot Damian, this photo actually reveals a new component of their sensor array - Google is capturing 3D Point Cloud data in addition to imagery!
Those aren't GPS's, they're Laser Range Finders.

He he google busted for 'pimping' on the street! Given how fanatical google is about pushing ahead with world IT resource domination, this is quite neat to see. Should be more of it..

The reason it has so many views is cause you're on stumble... and unfortunately you're not getting very many comments on it cause the stumble goes straight to the large version.

Hilarious photograph.

If you start here
maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocod e=&q=pre...

You can actually follow the cop following the google car. I'm thinking California Stop at the stop sign.
