I see an opening for a smartphone app that can give 'expert' driving
instructions to the car. :)
e.g.
Faster! - Ignore speed limits.
Yellow light-Accelerate! - We'll make it OK.
Run that red light! - There's nothing coming.
Maximum acceleration when lights change! - We can beat the queue.
Ignore Stop sign! - There's nothing coming.
Honk & Flash lights! - To get that car out of the way.
Undertake now! - He won't get out of our way.
Overtake now! - We'll make it OK.
Don't join traffic queue ahead! - Overtake and push in at the front of
the queue.
etc........
