Speedtrap/hazard popup obstructs view
Hi everybody,
when you approach a speedtrap/hazard, there is a popup that shows the distance to it. Very useful, specially on that speedtraps hidden behind the trees ... And it would be perfect if they didn't obstruct the view of the road ahead. Look at the screenshot:

It can be very annoying when it happens just before a corner, when in doubt between taking just the next turn or the one that is 20 meters after...
As you can see my screen is pretty small (3 inches, 240x320 pixels). Majority of smartphones here in Brazil are this way because the good ones are very very expensive (Galaxy S3 is over 500 dollars with 2-year contract, a thousand dollars without).
A solution that would be very easy to implement is an option to not show these type of popups, because we already have the voice alerts. Another would be to make it smaller and transparent, so it wouldn't block the view of the road ahead.
Thanks in advance!
