Seattle NavTraffic

Hello everyone,

While I didn't end up with the RL as I was thinking, I did end up with a new TL Type S. RL was just a bit too mature for me right now (only 23 years old) haha

Anyways, I remembered that there are a good number of Seattle RL'ers in here. And I was wondering how good your navtraffic data was. My nav data doesn't really show up that often (even with the correct zoom levels). Often when I ask for traffic data, it'll give me the screen saying "No traffic data for 30 miles" or something to that effect.

Is this similar to what you Seattle RL'ers have experienced?

I had some problems with Nav Traffic info for Seattle a week ago. It had no info Sunday the 29th. It was still out Monday morning on my drive to work but had returned by the time I was going home.

There also seems to be something funky going on with their info for 520 west near 405. It's been showing red on my car almost all the time for the past couple days. Even at 5am when there's almost no traffic.

But other than that, it's been working. Don't know how accurate it actually is though.

my navtraffic has been working fine I think. However once in awhile, especially on a weekend the navtraffic might be off for a few hours. I don't think it's the car's problem, probably has something to do with the XM company.
