    What difference does it make?
    50 KM or 100KM
    Realistically 50 KM is good enough.

    If you look at 100KM by the time you get there traffic conditions have changed. (They always change)

    You can look at your whole route on MyDrive it covers everything in regards to traffic.
    But it is useless if at any time there is a change in traffic conditions somewhere on your route.

    In fact the First 25KM is the best.
    The Traffic Horizon (Bubble) travels along the route with you on your journey constantly assessing the traffic situation ahead as a moving to your target always.
    If I remember correctly it updates every 2 Minutes.

    Also the time of day you start out plays a big roll in what traffic you will run into and that is not covering any road accidents that might pop up.

    So seeing traffic 100KM away on your phone is not going to be a real big help in the long run.

    The TomTom app will make corrections as you drive.
    That goes for any GPS app or stand alone GPS unit when you are using traffic.

    I have 6 countries on my test phone.

    50 or 100km makes a difference. Red dots are covered by Tomtom traffic at my place.

    @dennismoore Right. And moves with you while driving!!

    TomTom projects traffic up to approx. 125/ 130 km from your location.

    Useful or not, up to you. It is what it is

    That's just an opinion. I like the truth and nothing but the truth. That's important to me. It seems we don't care about the same values. That's life and I like it. Bye4now.

    Totally agree and just ignore the "people" (seems that my previous phrase was in violation of the rules here being rude ...seriously??) that think otherwise!
    They simply insist they are right while they obviously know they were partly wrong, being that it should have been 100km in stead of 50 km !

    You take things too seriously mate...It's just a forum...I like this forum since my friend Catymag was around, a forum full of passionate members. I came here for helping people to what i'm good about, i came here for discussing with other people that share the same interests. I don't need to come here to download what i need, usually i already have things posted here, way before they are posted. Do you want to turn this forum or section into some shop where people just come and download what they need without a word, without been allowed to ask questions or talking about what they want to talk, on topic of course? When TT first time implemented traffic in my country, i didn't knew that is just about 120-130 km around my position. But, talking to other people, we arrived to this conclusion, i learned and now i know. If i live in a country with highways that doesn't have exits very often, a 50km traffic event doesn't help me much if i don't have alternative route, if i already passed the last exit before an accident. I have to face the traffic jam....I don't think people from TT are stupid, they made this radius with a purpose. There are many things to talk about, but first we have to agreed that we are on a forum and we are allowed to talk about it. Not everyone is specialist in TT, that's why they came here to learn all about it, to talk about it and share their experience with each others. Let them talk freely, let them enjoy the forum, let them enjoy especially this great navigation program.

    Forum (from Cambridge dictionary):
    A place on the internet where people can leave messages or discuss particular subjects with other people at the same time.
    A meeting in which people can discuss subjects that are important to them with others.
    A situation or meeting in which people can talk about a problem or matter especially of public interest
    Sorry for some off topic but things need to be said. I don't want to wear forever IGH4oyx

    True this forum is not very forgiving. It look sometimes I'm in another world, lead by Kim Jong-un or Putin. Not very nice.
