Google Earth shows the car I got rid of 2 years ago in my driveway. It shows my new car in my daughter's driveway.

It shows many addresses in the middle of the road.
It shows my son's house half-way up the street from where it is.
It locates my house next door.

Don't we all just love the new age of 'technorogy'?

I suspect that much of these abnormalities are the results of the lack of survey accuracy. We simply don't know with any degree of accuracy where we are. And the road maps reflect this, I also suspect of the two that Google Earth more likely to be correct.
I know there are a discrepancy of 15' of or more in my neck of the woods.
