Where did a Google Street View car get pulled over (sort of)?

There are a lot (seriously, a lot) of unusual things on Google Street View, but one you’ve probably never seen is one of the cars that captures these images ending up in a ditch after a high-speed chase. But that’s exactly what happened in Middletown, Ind., this week.

Middletown police saw a Google Street View car, which was reportedly being driven by a driver from a contracted company, driving at 100 miles per hour through the small rural town. The first officer who saw it chased the car and matched its speed, but the driver refused to pull over. The chase didn’t last long though, as the Google car driver swerved to avoid a closed-off bridge and lost control of the vehicle, which crashed through a yard and into a creek.

The driver was unharmed in the incident and told officers that he had kept driving because he “was scared to stop.” He was arrested after being cleared at the hospital and faces one felony count of resisting law enforcement. Google issued a statement to Business Insider in response to the incident: “We partner with contractors to drive and collect imagery. We take the safety of our Street View operations very seriously, and we're committed to working with the contracted company and local authorities to ensure the proper actions are taken to address this situation.”
