The street level stuff is much more interesting to me - although not 
sideways but forwards - so you can recognise junctions - you tag a junction 
as confusing, then when you get routes from it, it shows you a picture of 
the junction from the direction you were coming from - has anyone got a 
forward facing camera mount for a bike or a car they could use on the IoW 
for this - to allow for quickly taking of these sort of pictures?

Cheers,

Jim.
