Hey Apple and Android! Please add this notification to everyone’s phone. It’s an easy solution to traffic congestion and will certainly help with our stress levels.
So, here’s the scene. You’re sitting at a red light. Great time to answer those five texts that came in while you were driving. Then, this notification pops up:
Traffic light has turned green! Please put down your phone and keep your eyes on the road!
I know there must be folks out there working on this as our cars are getting smarter all the time. Maybe notifications will be included in one of the traffic apps and displayed on the onboard screen. Traffic lights will need some sort of wireless upgrade, then inputs from online maps and your GPS would do the trick.
