tute for attentive driving. Traffic condi-
tions change constantly and emergency
situations can arise without warning.
Relying only on NavTraffic information
may lead to a collision and could result
in serious personal injury.

equipped with traffic sensors and is not
available in all markets covered by the
service. Flow data may not be available on
portions of a road that is under construction.
