In the last year, some users of the Google Maps utility have been treated to numerous upgrades, including prediction-based traffic overlays and the Street View component. Google has now expanded the power of the software package to incorporate the Street View system into its long-standing engine for organizing driving directions.
No longer will the blue line be the only way to navigate the streets of the US. Users in “44 regions across the country” can now view images stored within Street View to “have visual context for intersections and action points along their route, enabling them to be aware of landmarks and other factors such as tolls, speed limits, size of the road, and the availability of parking at their destination.”
