Traffic List

 

Traffic messages are organized into two groups:   

• 

On My Route: 

 

Traffic events on your calculated route. You may only avoid ‘On Route’ 

traffic events.  

• 

All Messages:

 

Traffic events that are within 30 miles of your vehicle’s position in all 

directions. This list includes events on your route. The ‘Avoid’ option is 

not available for events that are not on your route.  

Traffic Event Classes

 

Traffic messages are organized into classes and each class has a name and 

symbol. This symbol will appear next to each event in the list, detail and map. 

The traffic event icons are color-coded to indicate their status: 

•  On Route: These “Red & Yellow” icons appear for “On Route” event only. 

These messages are listed in the “On Route” list.

•  Off route: These ‘Red & White’ icons indicate events not on your route. 

These   messages are listed in the “All Messages” list.

•  Avoided: This symbol will appear to indicate if the event has been 

avoided. When selected, avoided events may be cancelled and will not 

be excluded from the route.
