Traffic Information

The Traffic Live service evaluates not only the information which is
made available to it by radio stations but also floating car data from the
numerous users of the service. This offers for example the following
advantages:
Obstructions which cause traffic congestion can be detected and
►
avoided more quickly and more reliably.
The end of a traffic obstruction is detected more quickly and more
►
reliably. Unnecessary detours can be avoided.
Estimated times of arrival can be calculated more precisely.
►
The Traffic Live service does not change the way you operate the
navigation device; the only difference is the source of reference for the
traffic information.
For details of the TMC function refer to chapter "TMC (Traffic
Information)" on page 86.

car data to the NAVIGON Live server. The more users that provide
floating car data anonymously, the better the system can identify traffic
jams and the more reliably it can avoid them. Estimated times of arrival
can also be calculated more precisely. Select whether you want to send
floating car data (Yes or No). Floating car data cannot be traced back in
any way to you personally.
