I had in mind (and it'll probably stay in mind!) a renderer which showed you a ground level view of the street you were "moving" along with upcoming turnings and so on, like a satnav display, which showed signposts - no right turn, this way to Amarillo - and a 30 sign as you entered a 30 area (not a 52.12345 sign).
