The traffic sidebar is shown in the middle of the Driving View when you are driving a planned route. The sidebar informs you about traffic delays while you drive, using glowing dots to show you where each traffic incident is located on your route.
|
The top of the traffic sidebar represents your destination and shows the total time delay due to traffic jams and other incidents on your route. The central section of the traffic sidebar shows individual traffic incidents in the order they occur on your route. The bottom of the traffic sidebar represents your current location and shows the distance to the next incident on your route. |
To make the traffic sidebar more readable some incidents may not be shown. These incidents will always be of minor importance and only cause short delays.
When there are no delays on your planned route, or you have not planned a route, the traffic sidebar is not shown.
The colour of the pointers, as shown below, gives you an instant indication of the type of incident:
|
Unknown or undetermined situation. |
|
Slow traffic. |
|
Queueing traffic. |
|
Stationary traffic or road closure. |
