Google Maps is great for showing you which roads to accept, which paths to walk on, which trains to grab, and now it looks similar it might even show you lot where the traffic lights are. Co-ordinate to a recent discovery shared on Droid-Life, it appears that Google is testing out including traffic calorie-free indicators on Google Maps.

This will come up incredibly handy while you are driving, especially if you're trying to notice the fastest road possible and want to avert as many traffic lights as possible. However, the current implementation of the characteristic does make it a chip difficult to see as it is incredibly small, but according to the reader who sent the screenshots to Droid-Life, they claim that the icons exercise grow in size a scrap during navigation, presumably as the user is reaching the light.

We imagine that it could besides come in handy for self-driving cars that might rely on data from Google Maps, where if they know that in that location is a light along the route they are driving on, they can then prepare to slow downwards or stop. Google is actually not the first to implement such a feature. Apple tree had previously introduced a similar feature to Apple tree Maps dorsum in iOS 13, and then it's nice to encounter Google play catchup for once when it comes to mapping applications.

It is unclear when the feature volition be rolled out to users, only similar we said, it does seem to have the potential to be rather useful and we tin can't expect to see it released to the masses.
