Route guidance with current traffic reports
▌Traffic information overview
Current traffic reports are received with the Live
Traffic Information subscription service.
If the subscription has expired, then FM RDS-TMC
is available in selected countries.
%
Live Traffic Information is not available in all
countries.
The service must be registered in the Mercedes
me user account (
page 522). This secures the
/
free-of-charge period of three years.
The service updates the traffic situation via the
Internet connection at short, regular intervals.
Information on the vehicle's position is regularly
sent to Mercedes-Benz AG. The data is immedi-
ately rendered anonymous by Mercedes-Benz AG
and forwarded to the traffic data provider. Using
this data, traffic reports relevant to the vehicle's
position are sent to the vehicle. The vehicle acts
as a sensor for the flow of traffic and helps to
improve the quality of the traffic reports.
