Listing Traffic Incidents

No Traffic within 30 Miles
If you say “Display traffic incidents” or
select Traffic Incidents but there are
no incidents within 30 miles of your
current location, the following screen
will be displayed.
Selecting an Incident Icon from the
Map Screen
Zoom in or out so that you are between
the 1/2 and 5 mile scales. (The map
must be on the 1/2 to 5 mile scales to
view the incident icons.) To view the
details of a specific incident, use the
joystick to position the cursor (round
red circle) over the incident icon you are
interested in. Then push in on the
joystick to view a pop-up box summary
describing the incident. To see and hear
the incident details, select Traffic
Detail. To return to your current
position map screen, say or select
Return. To continue viewing incidents
in your “scrolled to” location, press the
CANCEL button.
NOTE:
• Incident reports may be displayed on
roads that have no traffic flow data
available.
• Freeway incident reports can lag
behind the actual incident, or remain
displayed after an incident has
cleared. This is normal, and is
dependant on the reporting agency,
and the speed at which the data is
updated.
• The displayed incidents may disagree
with the information from other audio
or internet based traffic information
displays.
