That would be a good idea, but they would have to make sure the sound was turned off so that the 'ripe' language could not be heard

Thinking about it, they'd have been better off with a Brox or something similar - being recumbent would make the ride much more comfortable for the poor guy...

As technology improves then the camera set up would get lighter and could then be fitted to a helmet worn by a Google employee. Streetview could then extend into public buildings, shops and conveniences and maybe even into our homes....

Actually the council has that last one in the bag already for increasing council tax.

Just seen this reported here http://crave.cnet.co.uk/gadgets/0,39029552,49302292,00.htm.
The comments about the legality of trike on footpaths (whilst maybe getting it wrong) do raise an interesting point. I'm assuming that footpaths doesn't mean pavements not path not next to a road. Most of the paths I've used would be difficult to get a trike along - especially ones with the anti-motorbike gates. Not sure how they'd plan on getting the trike and camera through/over some of those.
