Follow the Google Street View car in Tampa

I had just turned off of Fletcher Ave. onto Nebraska ave and there it was! One of the Google Street view cars! This was the 1st time that I had ever seen one and wanted to get a picture with it to post, so I followed it for a few turns and finally got it to stop. I jumped out and asked the driver if I could get a picture with it and he said that he did not have time because of a tight schedule to keep. I did however grab my iPhone 4 and shot some video of the car as I followed it for a few minutes!

you were probably pissing the guy off.

@xxbrkdwnxx I do not think he was pissed because he said he would stop for a few minutes but they keep track of the car on GPS to know where he is and for how long in order to know his progress. He had a schedule to keep.

It amazes me how they accomplished this, literally miles of road had to be traveled in order to get an accurate visual of every street.

Holy crap! I actually went to this location on Google Earth and saw the exact cars and the people on the corner. Wow that's cool lol. I'm guessing the guy filming this was in a tannish buick?
