The View menu has the following options:

3D Moving Map

A 3-dimensional map with turn icons (default).

This view allows you to see how the road ahead is organized, similar to the
perspective of a bird flying 50 feet above the route. You can see the route to
your destination as a blue overlay on one of the roads with white triangles
leading you in the correct direction.

The name of the street you are currently on is displayed at the bottom of the
screen. About two minutes before the next turn, the street name changes to the
one you will turn onto. You can change this option in Preferences so that
immediately after the prior turn, the name becomes that of the street you will turn
onto.

When you are viewing moving maps during navigation, a Traffic Alert icon will
appear at the bottom-right corner of the map if there is an accident less than 15
miles ahead of your current route and the “Traffic Alerts” preference is turned on.
You will see the distance along the route until the accident and hear an audio
warning.
