I found a work colleague outside her house looking at the camera as they did their drive by.

A friend who works in a theme park was aware that Google were touring the park with a camera and snuck around the back and appeared twice, to return to his home as the camera car rolled past and picked him up again.

On the day they drove past my house there was a clapped out old Astra, no idea who's it was but it was there for a couple of days.

A friend of mine who shall remain nameless for obvious reasons had a lady friend around for the afternoon when the camera drove pass, his wife has asked numerous times '' I wonder who's car that was'' .He claimed he has no idea, maybe it had broken down?

When the Google car passed by me walking on the pavement, I stood and gave a really big smile to the camera. It came out blurred.
