I think they are very useful. I have a car navigator that displays road 
signs on the screen, but unfortunately only a small percentage of actual 
signs are in the map data. Especially if the navigator could read out 
loud the signs to follow via a speech synthesizer, one would rarely need 
to take one's eyes off the road to look at the navigator screen.
