Traffic is a unique TomTom LIVE Service for receiving up-to-date traffic
information. For more information about services and subscriptions, go to
tomtom.com/services.
In combination with IQ Routes, Traffic helps you plan the best possible route
to your destination taking into account the latest traffic information.
A route is calculated taking into account the current local traffic conditions.
Your TomTom GO automatically receives regular traffic information updates.
If traffic incidents are found on your route, you are asked if you want to replan
the current route to try and avoid the traffic incidents.
