Garmin unit must be connected to its car charging cord in order for Traffic Reporting to operate as FM receiver is contained within the cord.
Once traffic is on your route, unit will warn you of it and redirect you around the traffic situation, if you desire.
I neglected to point out on the zoomed-out TRAFFIC MAP (at 3:22 onward) the RED AREA southeast of the car icon (the area is about 10 o’clock in relation to the car icon- car is actually pointing southbound). This is the area on CA-78 that had the red ‘bar’ earlier depicted in the videos’ Traffic Search function. This illustrates the map is consistent with the Traffic Search depiction.
And you can select an individual reference and get more detail for the delay-such as an accident, traffic stoppages, etc.
Please rate. Additionally-comments, questions or suggestions are welcome.
