6.1.9.3 Online traffic information
Unlike statistical traffic information, online traffic can provide you with the real-time status of
the traffic. Route calculation can avoid road blocks or unexpected traffic jams caused by an
accident.
Note!
This feature needs an active internet connection.
The application automatically takes into account the traffic events received. You do not need
to set anything in the program. When iGO primo receives traffic information that may affect
your route, the program will warn you that it is recalculating the route, and navigation will
continue with a new route that is optimal considering the most up-to-date traffic conditions.
To fine-tune this recalculation, you can set the minimum delay that can trigger a route
recalculation, or you can instruct iGO primo to have you confirm the new recommended route
before it takes effect. You can do these in Traffic settings (page 103).
A special icon (
) is displayed on the Map screen to show you whether traffic events are
received. The icon shows the status of the traffic reception when there are no traffic events on
your route, otherwise it shows the type of the next traffic event on your route.
Road segments affected by traffic events are displayed with an alternate colour on the map,
and small symbols above the road show the nature of the event:
