A woman in Utah named Lauren Rosenberg is suing Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) because of the “Walking” feature on Google Maps.
Rosenberg used Google Maps on January 19, 2009 through her BlackBerry to get walking directions between 96 Daly Street, Park City, Utah and 1710 Prospector Avenue, Park City, Utah (shown in the embedded map below). Google suggested her to walk 1/2 mile down Deer Valley Drive, but the problem was that this road is also known as the busy highway Utah State Route 224, which does not have any sidewalks.
