Left foot, Right foot

Google Maps .com.au
Google Maps now also generates directions for walking, not just driving. Strangely, it gives quite different directions even outside of urban areas.
I know for certain there aren’t any footpaths for 99% of the roads within 25minutes drive in any direction of my home.
Some streets, particularly around schools, have some well beaten paths through the roadside grass and compacted earth, so I’ll assume the Google people are smart and give walking directions with the shortest path and terrain factors weighing heavily on the calculation.
Good on ‘em!
