Driving Google Maps into high gear

Google Maps helps you drive, but have you ever driven on a map? There are a number of driving simulators that use online map technology to provide a 2D driving experience. Map Channels’ Street View Driver lets users get a first person perspective of driving down any of the cities mapped by Google Street View. It’s obviously not the same sensation of driving, but users can accelerate and decelerate and turn left or right down any mapped street.
