Google Maps

Sent a feedback to Google Maps a few months ago on an Artificial Intelligence feature Google Maps should have to estimate how much traffic you will have if you slow down or increase your speed so that way your vehicle does not cause more traffic and congestion ahead while trying to reach your destination. It will save you time and money in the long run.

Ex. Your driving and Google Maps AI tells you to slow down to 45 miles per hour so that you will not hit the traffic ahead and not cause more congestion. If all is good, you will save gas, time and money in the long run and it will solve the crazy bumper to bumper we have in major cities.

Come on Google, you got to admit, that this will change Google Maps moving forward and open doors for more things to come in the future.
