Check Traffic

In the Maps & Traffic tab, you can also check traffic conditions
around a certain area.

1. Select “Maps & Traffic” from the tabs at the top of the

page. Then choose a location from the drop-down menu.

2. The map of your chosen location appears. By default,

traffic will be shown on this page. You can choose
“Hide/Show” Traffic from the menu.

NOTE: You can zoom in or out using the “Q” and “P” keys.
Use the trackball to pan the map. When you zoom or pan,
there may be brief activity to load the updated map.

3. Traffic alerts, as well as traffic flow information, are then

shown on the map, flashing on and off.

NOTE: If no traffic information appears on the map, try
zooming out to show a larger area. Traffic flow information will
only appear for large roads such as highways.
