Navigation apps prioritize speed, often ignoring how people actually drive. Abuela Mode introduces a slower, safer routing option inspired by the cautious driving style of grandparents.
The objective was to reduce accidents and stress by validating slower driving as a feature, not a flaw. By humanizing navigation, the tool reframes safety as care.
The idea uses humor and cultural familiarity to promote better driving behavior without enforcement.
