Is there free roam in Google Maps?

You know how you can see everything from the Street View? Is there a way to go wherever and watch people make French fires or something? Like, what if I need proof that someone is selling illegal Kool Aid and they doing it in a non-public building? I can’t look in there folk

Well, i think there is. There’s at least one reddit thread dedicated to interesting Google maps pics. People do dumb poses for the mapmaker vehicles now.
Problem is, it’s not in real time. You can look at the area where your black market kool-aid dealer has set up, but if they haven’t been there for years, you’ll probably find nothing. Most of those people are clever enough to keep their enterprises mobile. So you may never find the evidence you want on the maps.
You can always don a trench coat and fedora and go see for yourself in real time. Rent a black SUV and leave your phone at home. Take pics with a polaroid camera, preferably the older style.

The real time thing won’t be an issue. I’m just trying to go beyond the street’s perspective.

you can't see, because map view was a past filming video.
