Could have been better except that I placed the first in Canada and it was really Australia.
I suck at that game
I did pretty well the first time, even though I didn’t realise you can move tge streetview around.
Well, that was a bit weird.
On the last one, saw street signs in Spanish/Portuguese (yeah, like I can tell the difference) and a car driving on the left hand side of the road. So I pulled up my handy Wikipedia list of left-driving countries and picked Suriname.
Turns out it was Mexico. How does that work??
I played that game and it showed me some card driving down a two lane highway.
I thought to myself, “That sure looks like Australia!”
But it couldn’t be cuz all the cars were driving on the right hand side.
But it **was **Australia.
What gives?
Twice I was just over the state line from the photo, but it helps that I’m familiar with the area.
I guessed Arkansas for the first one, and Arkansas WAS the 2nd one.
For the ones outside the US, I was at least on the same continent.
Fun time waster!
Could be a four lane highway… with a large median strip, eg with such thick bush, that you couldn’t see the other two lanes.
Plenty of that around.
M1 NSW (Sydney to Newcastle ) has plenty of bush at the middle. Some it has a rock (original bedrock… They cut the rock away where the road was going. ) in the middle.
Were they overtaking the streetview car ?
Or… playing up for the camera… a joke “hah, we have crazy drivers here, amigo !”
Fun Game. I tried it 3 times and my high was ~11,000. Those Australian ones kill me, I keep guessing South Africa, but otherwise I am pretty accurate.
Stupid Russia. Thought I was doing good when I had a gut feeling the architecture was Russian. I was right but still missed by a million miles.
ETA: Although woohoo, my “umm well that has to be northern Mexico somewhere” guess was only off by 12 KM
Pretty amazing how accurate you can be with not much more than vegetation, dirt, and some pavement!
- I got all the continents correct, just missed on the specific locations. But I bet I can’t repeat that score.
ETA: 10008. I guess I can!
