Display Current Neighborhood (Urban) or City / Next City (Highways) on Top Bar
Title: Display Current Neighborhood (Urban) or City / Next City (Highways) on Top Bar
Description:
The Problem:
When driving, drivers often lose track of their general location. In cities, they don't know which neighborhood they are in. On highways, they lose track of which municipality they are passing through or which city is coming up next. The current interface lacks this contextual geographical reference.
The Solution:
Add a smart location indicator on the top bar of the map screen that dynamically changes based on the driving environment:
In Urban Areas: Display only the Current Neighborhood (e.g., "Downtown"), keeping the screen clean since the city name is already known.
On Highways/Rural Roads: Display the Current Municipality / Next City (e.g., "Passing through: Princeton / Next: Trenton").
The Benefit:
This gives drivers perfect spatial awareness tailored to their context. It prevents visual clutter in the city while providing critical geographic milestones during road trips, all with a single, quick glance.
