Yeah I did a bit more research afterwards to double check, including going and getting gps more gps traces and the current (Bing) imagery appears to be dead on. I also checked it with some centre lines from another data source (Not importing just to check the imagery) and they also verified that the Bing imagery is correct.
Thanks for the feedback! I hadn't thought about the atmospheric interference.
