Traffic on Your Route
When a traffic delay occurs on your route, an alert appears on
the map, and the device calculates an alternate route to avoid
the delay. You can choose whether to use alternate routes
automatically, or upon request. See Traffic Settings for more
information (
Traffic Settings,
page
14). Your device may route
you through a traffic delay if a better alternative route does not
exist. The delay time is added into your estimated time of arrival
automatically.
Taking an Alternate Route
If you do not have your device set to use alternate routes
automatically, you can manually start an alternate route to avoid
a traffic delay.
