It's crude because it's too general. Making three right turns might be the right choice on a busy street in SF, but on a side street in a quiet suburb, making a single left is normally the better choice.
- dboreham 9y agoFor me it would also need to know the date because it is reasonable to make a left turn in winter but not in summer.
- CamperBob2 9y agoAs I pointed out elsewhere, that's what user preference settings are for, but I'm curious: why the seasonal difference? Snow routes?
- CamperBob2 9y agoSure. So add a slider to the configuration page: "Avoid left turns when practical."
- Broken_Hippo 9y agoIt isn't just the wait time, but safety. There is less to look out for when turning right vs turning left, resulting in fewer accidents. This is the same reason some employers require employees to back into a parking space when possible.
