According to the AAA, 34.4 million Americans will travel at least 50 miles this Labor Day Weekend. That means plenty of picnics, bbqs and a lot of TRAFFIC JAMS!
We’d like to help you with that. Just in time for one of the most traffic congested holiday weekends of the year, we’re launching our new enhanced real-time traffic service—ActiveTraffic. And we’re offering everyone a 14 day free trial!
ActiveTraffic integrates the highest quality real-time traffic information available on the market today with our advanced routing technology to intelligently calculate the best route to avoid traffic congestion and find the fastest route to any destination based on real-time traffic conditions at that moment— not an accident reported a half hour ago. And best of all, it takes all of this information into account to provide you an accurate estimated time of arrival (ETA).
