Fail Maps

Appears Google is making Wales smaller and smaller by the day – or enlarging England!

The BBC reports:

Allison Osterwald knew she had to enter England when driving from Swansea to Birmingham but did not expect it on the M4 slip road for nearby Port Talbot.

When looking on Google Earth for directions, the web-based satellite mapping service told her to ‘merge onto M4 via the ramp… Entering England’.

College student Ms Osterwald, 40, said: “They are making Wales smaller by the day.”
