Navigation option avoiding schools #8088

Open PanderMusubi opened 4 years ago

PanderMusubi commented 4 years ago

Offer a navigation option to avoid schools during traffic hours to improve road safety. By default this option should be switched off and would only be useful for navigation by car.

Article in Dutch promoting this feature: https://nos.nl/artikel/2311932-routeplanners-en-navigatie-apps-moeten-straten-met-scholen-vermijden.html (The usual translation websites can help reading it.)

Implementing this option and notifying groups which are interested in this could help OsmAnd get promoted by these groups.

This is quite interesting though I'm afraid we will just spend lots of time trying to implement it and it will have no effect for Netherlands at all cause OsmAnd users are not using much daily-commute navigation and it is also discussible feature cause 90% of daily traffic is a regular traffic which doesn't use navigation at all.
