Avoid Slow Traffic with Google Maps

Posted in Thought on September 3rd, 2009 by skylercall – Be the first to comment

Avoid slow trafficI am so excited about Google’s new crowdsourcing road congestion data project. If Verizon Wireless would stop blocking the GPS device in my BlackBerry 8830 I would gladly do my part and share my location data.

Feature Request: Google should now be ready to implement a new feature I have long been wishing for. When searching for directions in Google Maps you are given two check boxes allowing you to avoid highways and tolls. Where is the option for avoiding roads currently experiencing slow traffic?
