School buses are the bane of traffic. I mean, things improve immediately on the commute during school holidays when those beasts aren't stopping traffic every few minutes.

On the drive to my walk I got caught behind the bus. I hate it when it happens at that location, because the damn bus stops every freaking driveway, even if they are less than 30ft or so apart. It took forever.

Then I thought of a brilliant idea that will hopefully never be implemented: if the navigation apps phones could get school bus telemetry data and suggest routes accordingly. While I don't need nav to get to my morning walk, knowing that the school bus is right ahead of me... well, I'd rather sit at home a few extra minutes than sit on the road behind the bus....

It's a terrible idea from a child safety etc standpoint, but man it would make some driving days easier!
