 Ah those Germans and their endless sense of humour! A German 'Free Art & Technology' group claim to have attached a GPS tracker to a Google Street View car surveying Berlin streets this weekend.
However it seems either the data logger has run flat or Google have spotted the device as the last position recorded was late yesterday afternoon (Sunday).
A web page here purports to show the movements of the pranked Street View car as recorded by the GPS logger.
