Is it possible to turn off dark mode when driving at night time in the maps app? If so, how do I do it?

Selective Dark mode I love dark mode on my iPhone 11. However, I'm not a big fan of it in maps. Hard to see items. Is there an "in-app" way only to disable dark mode without turning off globally?

How may one force Maps to stay in Light mode even when iOS is in Dark mode? I expect the answer, “Can’t be done,” but I thought I’d ask. As a habit I use Dark mode. But Maps display in Dark mode is… er… substandard. I find that I must grab at the Control Center, enable Light mode, restart Maps, each time I want an acceptable Maps display (then grab at the Control Center and re-enable Dark mode when I’m finished with Maps): tedious. It would “just work” if I could have Maps *always* display in Light mode regardless of whether or not iOS is running in Dark mode. Possible?

I have not found a feature to use as you mention unless I get out of the system dark mode.

Even out of dark mode when you click the start route it changes back to dark mode.
