XM NavTraffic®information is a subscription
service offered by XM®Satellite Radio.
This service provides real-time information
regarding traffic flow, accidents, road construc-
tion and other incidents, where available.
XM NavTraffic
®combines information from
commercial and public traffic data providers
including government departments of transpor-
tation, police, emergency services, road sen-
sors, cameras and aircraft reports. The traffic
information is broadcast to the vehicle by the
XM
®satellites. Available traffic information on
the route the driver selected is shown on the
navigation screen so traffic conditions between
you and the destination are known. Three types
of real-time traffic information for major road-
ways are shown on the navigation system:
* Unscheduled traffic data for example, acci-
dents and disabled vehicles.
* Scheduled traffic data, for example road
construction and road closures.
* Traffic flow information (rate of speed data) .
