This post appealed to many people in this Linked-in site since many admired it by saying it is true and that it is due to the ‘Take Flyover’ that made one’s Google Map navigation life become more wonderful. Commenting on the feature, a businessman Saurabh Khandelwal said, “I have not seen this feature in Google maps. I recently covered about 1000 km. But it’s a very good feature. They should also give information regarding toll plazas at highways and the amount that they charge while traveling. So, that can be planned better for fastag recharges, so that issues of blacklisting and cash double payments will not happen.”
Must I say, it was only one person, but in my view, it looks like a good team in total. It was also the result of years’ feed backs or demands from user as well as the client side. Engineer Faique Jatu said, “If I am using a flyover taking another color coded path is better, it is my opinion.”
