Does the next traffic light show green in a few seconds? Drive through or brake? Would you rather drive a little slower to stay in the Green Wave?
Or just cruise along as it will be a while before the lights turn green. And when exactly will it be green again?
trafficpilot shows visually and acoustically the suggested speed to pass the next traffic light without stopping. By following the speed recommendation, the users can reduce the stopping, braking and acceleration processes. If the stop in front of the traffic light is unavoidable, the remaining waiting time until the next green light is displayed. The app can be used either by bike or by car. The mode can be changed by tapping on the corresponding icon.
