Turn off "Current Location".
Randomly teleport somewhere on the planet.
Try to find an airport to win.

I'm stuck somewhere in the middle of what I think might be the Czech Republic. No signs of an airport for the past hour, but I did find the zoo.
 
This would be fun if moving about in streetviews wasn't the worst thing ever.
 
Easiest way for me double clicking on the road where I want to go.

Vice buttons on the ground, unless I'm trying to get a good look at a particular street sign.

I imagine it's less frustrating in these wide open roads where you can zip click half a freaking mile. Then again, at that point the hope for finding something anytime soon is pretty much out the window.

It's kinda like playing Myst with the whole damn world.
 
It's not just the control, though. The constant blurry wooshing effect, plus the motion of stop-go-stop-go-stop-go makes me want to vomit after 1 minute.

Mind you I'm not attacking google streetviews in general, but for the purpose of having fun exploring, not an enjoyable experience.
