RAC Traffic

The brilliant traffic app, to help you get out of a jam.

The RAC Traffic app is all about making your life on the move that little bit easier.

Price: Free l RAC

The RAC Traffic app shows you in real time and via Google maps where the traffic hotspots are. Through the joys of your GPS it will even determine which nasty jams are near you.

The map conveniently shows up any accidents with simple coloured dots on the map. A tap on an incident marker brings up a text description of the incident.

Where the start and end point of the incident are known, they are shown on the map to help you avoid the whole area. Speed and delay information is also shown so that you can easily decide whether or not to change your route. The severity information gives a simple recognition of the problem ahead and shows the actual position of the incident on the map.

Text information on the incidents can also be seen using the ‘incidents’ button. This shows a complete list which can be ordered by region, or by those incidents nearest to you.
