Game: How well do you know the world? Can you crack 10,000?

First try. 10,970.

I was surprised at how close I got to all of them lol.

9.5k second round. I saw "No Parking" on the ground and figured it was somewhere in the US but it was Australia and lost a ton of points.

18,616 first try. Most were in the US and Europe so easy to figure out.

In Europe I got stupid close (immediately knew both places), and the US within a state or so. Only one I was way off. It stuck me on a beach between a surf shop and a tree and I couldn't move at all...so I just threw in a quick Hawaii guess. It was some random tropical island in the Atlantic.

8846 but I was robbed for one. Was put on an outdoor trail with no view of any signs, trees or anything. The only hint was that I was surrounded by a lot of rocks. Couldn't move from that spot either, only could look around.
 
Tried it a few more times, can't beat my score, but I usually get between 12-16k.
Actually I almost beat it, I was up to 15k but last question I made a stupid mistake and didn't listen to my instincts. I knew it was CO, why did I click PA?!
 
CRAZY: In the UK, it refuses to work and says ...

As I know nothing about computers, I can't supply a link that works in the UK.

I have NO idea how to defeat it in the UK, so this link does NOT exist (Joke)

EDIT: Sorry, I have poorly described the situation.
The original (OP) link, does NOT work in the UK.
But the 2nd link that I supplied above DOES work in the UK, as it gets round the BBC location blocks.
I did not make it clear enough, as I was trying to make a joke about it.

Accidently clicked out of the game on the 5th location, but had about 9K by then.

You can usually find a business or something that tells you where you are located. In one, there was a business truck. While the license plate was blurred the business name and town on the side of the truck was not.

Now, they did get me once. I was in the middle of what looked like a Danish amusement area. It had a building called Odense House. Easy enough - Odense, Denmark...Nope, it was a replica sitting in Japan. lol.
