My morning commute is less stressful thanks to these underrated Google Maps features

I know my daily commute well enough that I rarely think about the directions. The route has become second nature, and I could probably predict where traffic starts to build before I leave the house.

Even so, I still open Google Maps before heading out every time.

It isn’t because I’m worried about getting lost. Instead, Google Maps has become my last-minute reality check. It has saved me from enough frustrating commutes that I no longer think twice about checking it.
