Bypass Circumvention

Many navigation systems offer alternative routes for traffic jams. However, according to the ADAC, they are only valid in exceptional cases, for example in case of complete closure or congestion of more than ten kilometers. Due to the spread of navigation devices, too many motorists would simultaneously turn to an alternative road supposedly faster and would obstruct them, so that one progresses more slowly than on the highway.

Nevertheless, it is recommended to monitor the traffic perhaps to avoid a shorter route and a little longer.

You can even do it without a navigation device, namely via a smartphone. The preinstalled card services of mobile phones often provide a very accurate picture of the traffic: they use the location data of other smartphones with the respective operating system when calculating the traffic situation. Above all, Google Maps provides relatively good real-time traffic data because the Google Android operating system has a global market share of more than 80%.

The large number of users also gives a relatively good picture of the current situation on the roads. most likely also some Android users on the respective route in traffic jams.

ban on driving trucks

Some relief promises the additional ban on driving trucks, which takes effect on Saturday, July 7 and until the end of August, every Saturday from 7 am to 8 pm.
