Google Maps new feature will now give you warnings about Indian roads
Google Maps has introduced some new features in India. The new feature will help the users to know about accidents and mobile speed cameras on the road. According to a report in Cartoq, the feature will allow Google Maps users to report an accident on the road. The accident report will start appearing on the Maps after some other users report and confirm the same.
The Maps will also show the number of people who have reported the incident or the speed camera location, Cartoq said in its report. With the new feature, the driving experience is going to be better as it will allow the users to predict the road conditions as well. Until now, this feature was available only in countries like USA, UK, Australia, Russia, Brazil, Mexico, Canada, and Indonesia.
At present, the speed camera function is only available on devices run by Android and is expected to be released on the iOS platform soon. In India, speed cameras are limited to select major cities and towns, and hence most of the drivers are unprepared for this or even know its location.
