Google Maps Car Spotted in New Rochelle

The search engine giant uses the car to take pictures of cities at street level that are then incorporated into their maps.

What's coming to Google Maps sometime soon? Maybe you. Or me.

I spotted a Google Maps car today on Leroy Place. It turned right at Centre Avenue and I was able to catch up to it before the light turned green on Main Street.

So if you happen to be googling an address on Leroy Place sometime in the near future and you seen someone with a Patch Polo shirt and a blurred out face, that is me.
