Traffic Incidents

will delay your arrival, the traffic icon on the

traffic icon. Across the top of the display is the banner for coupons
and offers that are available for Traffic Link users.
Note

(Show Traffic Along Route) to Show All Traffic, the delay along
your route is not displayed and you are unable to avoid traffic
incidents using the Magellan RoadMate.
