Yeah, they used to have something similar if you tried to get driving directions from New York to London, but now it just says something like "cannot calculate route"

Yeah, that's kinda why I had to test it again - I heard somewhere - and tried it with a mix of Eastern USA cities to London or Dublin, and it told you to "Swim across the Atlantic Ocean"....

I wish they'd left it in ..... it always made for a bit of fun when you were Googling directions.

Ah well, no doubt their lawyers told them they could get sued or something if some idiot tried to do it for real.
