Goggle Maps shows off it's live data feature

You may be a seasoned traveller in your used motorhomes and no all routes like the back of your hand, however the route you know very well may still not be the best route to take.  Google maps will give you several route options that feature live traffic information allowing you to choose an alternative route with less traffic.

You can now check for congestion or traffic problems before setting off on your journey. Although, as you are aware, in most cases traffic problems occur throughout the day so what may have been clear as you planned your route could now be congested due to accidents or sheer amount of traffic to one particular location.  This is overcome by using Google maps on your smart phone on route, therefore any pending problems on the roads can now be avoided.

Google maps also contains backdated data on traffic patterns, showing previous traffic spots and predictions of traffic on certain times i.e. rush hour traffic, holiday traffic etc.  This is a perfect addition for when planning a route at certain times, i.e. you want travel home on Sunday evening a certain road but find that it is heavily congested at that time based on collected data.

You can become the most savvy navigator in your used motorhome and reach your destinations without encountering any traffic.
