Abstract
Systems and methods that reduce stress and errors experienced by a vehicle's driver navigating an intersection are disclosed. An in-vehicle system is capable of communicating whether travel is permitted in different directions exiting the intersection to the driver. The system can include a traffic-information-collection interface configured to receive real-time traffic signal status information at signalized intersections along a roadway of vehicle travel and a display configured to display traffic information comprising a visual indicator for all directions of travel from signalized intersections. Each of the visual direction indicators indicates whether travel is allowed in the direction of travel associated with each visual direction indicator.
