Hahaha, it actually drove up behind the firetrucks, got stuck, then went around the other way.

Its not a forest fire, just a house on fire. None of the other houses are on fire, but I agree google is hardcore.

EDIT: Never mind, I zoomed out and it does appear to be a forest fire.

I wonder how much they pay the dude in the truck to do that?

It's a Canadian company that does the street view imagery.

I still don't see a forest fire. Only smoke I see is coming from the house. I travelled around the block and don't see anything either.

Isn't a forest a prerequisite for a forest fire? I counted 2 trees...

Yeah, pretty sure it's a house fire, not a forest fire. See how long the fire department had to run their hose to the fire hydrant? It's all the way down the other end of the street.

Haha, if you look at all the images as you go around the block, if you face south on Turtle Creek Drive, it looks like the guy standing in the middle of the street is giving the one finger salute...

So cool! I imagine there are a ton of really good finds within this street view thing.
