This past week, I was in the Los Angeles area. My sister had a Garmin GPS with traffic updates and I had my Google Nav on my GSII.
My calculated route showed an hour and 15 minutes to arrive, with traffic shown.
Her's showed 45 minutes, also with traffic shown.
But...
Not only was her arrival time better (and accurate), her's rerouted us dynamically to avoid congestion and it worked very well. All the while, my Google Nav never deviated from the original course.
Are there any plugins available for better traffic handling?
What other GPS app is recommended that would give me better traffic re-routing and even lane-assistance? I have not tried the AT&T app as I don't want to pay monthly, but I will be willing to do a one time purchase if the app gives me a more "stand alone GPS" feel.
Thanks!
