About TomTom Traffic

TomTom Traffic is a TomTom service providing real-time traffic information.
In combination with historical road usage data, TomTom Traffic helps you plan the optimum route
to your destination taking into account the current local traffic conditions and the weather.
Your TomTom GO Camper regularly receives information about the changing traffic conditions. If
traffic jams, heavy rain, snow or other incidents are found on your current route, your TomTom GO
Camper will offer to replan your route to try and avoid any delays.
Important: When you approach a faster alternative route, you get a warning in the route bar and
you can see the alternative route in both the guidance view and the map view. To accept a faster
route, just steer towards the alternative route as you approach it and your device will select it.
To get TomTom services on your TomTom GO Camper, you must be connected to the internet. You
can connect to the internet using one of the following methods:
With a permanent connection directly from your TomTom GO Camper. These navigation devices
are called 'Always Connected' devices.
With a connection using your smartphone. These devices are called 'Smartphone Connected'
devices.
Wi-Fi.
Note: Some TomTom services might not be available in your current location.
