I have 10 miles commute from west to LA downtown every morning (took 30-45mins). but the RTTI doesn't really helping me at all because the traffic is like the attach picture everyday. The local is as bad as the fwy. Seriously considering moving out of LA.

Show me how bad is your city?

The traffic is pretty bad here in Copenhagen too.

I took this picture a friday afternoon in a Porsche Cayenne, at a car dealership... Shows the traffic mess pretty well :'(

I used to live in S.Pas, hate the traffic on 110 and local. but you're right, maybe better the k-town.

that was bad, but was it because of snow? my example was only in 2.5mls range, I can show you how bad we are in 10km range. you probably see only blocks and no roads on sight.

hey, you can watch TV in Euopen spec pro-navi, yeah?

It was a summer day, a friday afternoon, worst traffic jam day!

TV in NAV PRO it's a extra option, and it's pretty expensive. :thumbsdown:

Does anyone knows what are those arrows mean? It points to the direction that has traffic or other way around?

In the EU version, intuitively IMHO, it means the direction in which traffic is moving slowly.

You too, would travel slowly in that direction.

Looks like a feature of little use to you!

I believe that only build dates after September '06 can have the RTTI.
