Route guidance with traffic information
Semi-dynamic route guidance
With traffic information reception switched on,
semi-dynamic route guidance is active.
The system takes into account the existing traffic
information during route guidance. A message is
displayed as a function of the route, the traffic
information, and the possible alternate routes.
The message displays the traffic information and
in the event of a traffic obstruction, suggests an
alternate route. The difference in distance and
time between the original route and the alter-
nate route are also displayed.
Taking an alternate route:
"Detour"
With particular hazards, e.g. objects on the road-
way, a message is displayed without a possible
alternate route.
It is also possible to take alternate routes can
also be taken if the traffic reports are accessed
