Real Time Traffic Information.
In addition to the data that already exist today, this innovative service from BMW ConnectedDrive also uses municipal traffic data and anonymised movement profiles from mobile phones in the cellular network in order to calculate continuously updated traffic data in real time. As a result, you will always be able to react promptly to adverse developments on your route.
As soon as the navigation system detects a problem, it informs you via the Control Display about all the important details. For example, where – to an accuracy of 500 metres – is the tailback? In addition, the system calculates the probable delay you can expect to your journey as a result of the traffic situation.
However, the high quality of information is not achieved solely through transmission in real time but also by the coverage of the recorded road network. In addition to the motorway network, Real Time Traffic Information covers almost all important roads in towns and cities as well as cross-country connections.
Prerequisites for the use of Real Time Traffic Information are the Navigation system Professional, the mobile phone preparation with Bluetooth interface and BMW Assist.
