EXCERPT:
"A California woman is suing Google after she was hit by a car while following directions provided by Google Maps on her cell phone, according to AOL News.... The directions did not tell her that there were no sidewalks along Deer Valley Drive, which, Rosenberg alleges, led to her being struck by traffic.
"As a direct and proximate cause of Defendant Google's careless, reckless and negligent providing of unsafe directions, Plaintiff Lauren Rosenberg was led onto a dangerous highway, and was thereby stricken by a motor vehicle, causing her to suffer severe permanent physical, emotional and mental injuries," according to the complaint filed in Park County district court.
Rosenberg is asking for Google to pay her medical expenses in addition to punitive damages and loss of earnings.
QUESTIONS:
Do you agree that Google should be required to help this woman? Explain why you agree or disagree.
