School Zone excluded segment ID option
Currently, we can exclude based on road types, which in most cases is sufficient. However, there are times that we may need to exclude a segment that is the same road type in the school zone because of cross traffic.
For example, in the image below, the school zone is on a mH. I can exclude the FWY with no concerns, but the 2 yellow arrows point out some mH segments that I can't currently exclude. The issue is that if I am driving either of those routes, I will get a School Zone alert, and eventually a reduced SL, while driving across the school zone area. This is not ideal or accurate, causing poor driver experiences.
My suggestion would be to keep the exclude road type option as is but add another exclude section that you can enter segment IDs that you want excluded.
In this case, 49510434, 49470406, 502672895, 49467357, 49466866, 49504949 should be excluded.

If anyone can come up with an option that does not involve using the segment IDs that could change, please post it. This is the best solution I can think of right now.
