Google Maps may not offer scenic routes because it could be too 'biased'

How about Google prioritize getting me home without hitting the brake 500 times in one hour? Here's a free million-dollar app idea: Take me down the path that prioritizes right turns, utilizes the narrow neighborhood side streets, and in general finds a path that keeps me moving and flowing towards my destination. Don't just transform me into more traffic. I would much prefer an app that could opt me out of stop and go traffic over being home 11 minutes sooner.
