She wasn't playing, she was walking to her destination.  I can't tell from
the pictures whether it was her fault for following the route, her fault for
walking on the wrong side of the road, her fault for not staying close
enough to the side of the road, the government's fault for not banning
pedestrians, the government's fault for setting too high of a speed limit,
or the car driver's fault.  From the aerials it does look as though there
was enough room on at least one side of the road to walk (it wasn't a paved
sidewalk, but whatever).

Ridiculous that she'd try to blame Google, though.
