Here's the hypo: You're taking a 7 mile commute from the burbs into the city. You can go highway or backroads. Highway is congested and stopped for only part of the way (and so a few black triangles show on the display). Here's my question: Other than looking at the screen and taking a guess, how do you determine a route around traffic. Sounds simple, but consider this...if your nav is in dynamic route-fastest route, it may still be faster to sit in traffic for 1 1/2 miles than to take the back roads. Also, shortest route doesn't help if the highway is more direct either. What I'm getting at is that there really is no "avoid traffic at all costs" mode right?
