Traffic on Your Route
When calculating your route, the
device examines the current traffic
and automatically optimizes the
route for the shortest time. If a severe
traffic delay occurs on your route
while you are navigating, the device
automatically recalculates the route.
You might still be routed through
traffic if no better alternative routes
exist.
If a non-severe traffic delay occurs on
your route, the traffic icon displays
how much time the delay has added
to your route. This time is already
included in your estimated arrival time.
