PLEASE let us disable the "what's happening nearby" popup

Post by MDesigner
Please allow users to completely disable the popup that comes up when you're at a stop, showing what's happening nearby. Sometimes I just don't care. Sometimes it's just plain dangerous as I'm navigating very tight downtown city turns, and I need to see on the map which street is coming up, but I have to tap the close button to get rid of the popup because it doesn't go away right away.

This feature is a potential hazard, allow users the ability to disable it. Thanks.

It can be disabled. It's a workaround, though, so has side-effects. See the FAQ. This as been overly posted about in dozens of threads. No need for another one.
