NAVI Garmin traffic management.
« on: July 24, 2023, 06:28:06 PM »
Am I right in thinking that the inbuilt Garmin Satnav unit has route management based upon traffic conditions and will update the route accordingly?
I didn't see anything to advise on a route change when encountering some issues on a trip from the NW to SE at the weekend.

Check your TMC icon in the map screen.

You should find that it is no longer active as Trafficmaster turned the service off at the end of April.
Let's be careful out there !

Thanks for the reply. I have just downloaded Waze to my phone and see how that behaves.

I tried Waze for a week but went back to Google Maps.

Waze has a bug with the MK4 headunit v driver display and Google Maps in satellite view just looks cool :)
