Traffic greenlight wave in Munich explained: operations of the traffic pilot app detailed
Unleash City Navigation: The "Traffic Whisperer" is Here to Guide You!
Crawling through urban traffic is a painful reality - endless red lights, chaotic stop-and-go, and unwanted fuel consumption. But brace yourself, city dwellers! A groundbreaking app from Munich wants to revolutionize this scene! Meet the "Traffic Whisperer" - designed to ease your journey by predicting the next green light.
What's the Secret Sauce?
Envision this: You're cruising through town in your vehicle or on your bike, and your phone chirps up, "Slow down by 2 km/h now, and you'll sail through the next green light!" Sounds too good to be true? Not with the "Traffic Whisperer." It pinpoints your location and speed using GPS, compares it against traffic signal timings, and tells you whether to speed up or cruise smoothly.
Fear not, this app won't turn you into a lead foot! If you're exceeding the speed limit, the app will caution you and even dim the display.
Where can I (joyfully) Stumble Upon It?
It's already making magic happen in Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Ingolstadt, and heading to Erfurt. Munich's next in line, with a test phase underway in Oberschleißheim along the B471. If you're feeling adventurous, give the green light check a go there. The developers are recruiting allies within Munich, with plans to light up the entire city!
So, What's the Big Deal?
- Calmer Nervés: Anticipate stops with more accuracy, fostering a more relaxed driving experience.
- Fewer Emissions: Less time idling means lower fuel consumption - good news for your wallet and our planet.
- Efficiency: The more people join in, the smoother the traffic flow becomes.
Pedal Power, Anyone?
The "Traffic Whisperer" also supports two-wheeled warriors! Yes, that's correct - it boasts a 'Bike Mode' to glide through city traffic swiftly and comfortably. Bonus points: It might even convince traffic lights to turn green specifically for cyclists (currently being tested in Düsseldorf, watch this space!).
Test Drive It for FREE!
You can grab the "Traffic Whisperer" for free on the App Store and Google Play. Download, choose your route, and test the green wave. For optimum results, keep the app running in the foreground - Google Maps can play backup in the background.
Final Thoughts: The concept is commendable, the tech is ready - all Munich needs now is the green signal. Stay tuned for updates as we journey together from the heart of the city!
