Google Maps Street View cameras, as well as being experts at capturing road layouts and coordinates, are pretty adept at snapping passers by in compromising positions. This includes everything from daring pedestrians eager to flash a bit of extra flash to random animal happenings. Quite recently, a half-naked man was caught in a death-defying feat clambering out of his window. Yet this time around, a rather embarrassing mishap occurred right as the camera was passing.

The Street View team were travelling down a quaint country road, in some rather glum conditions.

They ventured on a pretty narrow stretch, which saw a grassy bank on one side and fenced off woodland on the other.

A bunch of highway workers, clad in woollen hats and striking hi vis jackets, could be seen standing in a bunch on the left hand side.

Their gaze was well and truly taken by the antics of a cyclist, on a red bike, on the opposite side of the road.

They appeared to be pedalling off the curb and onto the road, yet the slight decline clearly caused a problem.
