Nice touch under the traffic info.

Standard BMW oem system, no tweaks or anything

That is useful traffic info :D
 
Off topic... but is that an F15 X5?

I recently had an F30 3 series in Germany and it displayed something similar through TMC (but didnt mention speed just police checks).. however the idrive looked completely different to yours!
 
Its dependent not on BMW but the data that the system receives I seem to recall. So its possible that RDS/TMC in the UK doesn't supply that information, but abroad it might.

I've never quite worked out how to best use that section of the navigation, it seems to provide far too much information about roads you're nowhere near. I'll have to study it at some point.

I suspect the newer iDrive systems with RTTI are a bit more helpful still.
 
Very good - nice touch!

You're right Maniac. I can have the nav on and it will come up that there's traffic. You click the exclamation mark only for it to say there's a delay on some motorway that I won't be using. Seems kind of pointless when you're on a guided route.
 
Don't you have the option to select "filter" which partly does that? It still shows roads around you, but not in Paris for example.
