Traffic flow information
When the map scale is between 0.02 mi (25 m) –
0.75 mi (1 km), red, yellow, or green blinking lines
may appear on either side of a road. These colors
indicate the average speed at which traffic is
flowing along these streets. Here is a guide to the
colors and the average speed they indicate:
Red: average speed in this area is between
5 mph to 15 mph (8 km/h to 24 km/h)
Yellow: average speed in this area is between
20 mph to 40 mph (32 km/h to 64 km/h)
Green: average speed in this area is 45 mph (72
km/h) or faster (An icon without a number indi-
cates the average speed of the road is more than
70 mph (112km/h))
❒ In addition to these blinking lines, a round
icon with a number may appear on the map.
The number in the icon indicates the actual
average speed of that specific area.

“City Map”.
❒ The flow icon appears only when the scale on
the map is 10 mi (20 km) or lower.
