Poll: how do you feel about the traffic indication lines in the nav?

[BobbyD1]

Searched but didn't see a discussion about this. Anyway squinting at the screen to try to see those teeny tiny, super thin traffic indicator lines is driving me a bit crazy. IMO, it would be great if they were thicker and more legible. Even better, what if the thick blue navigation/directions line had different colors depending on traffic data? Note: by too small / too large in the poll I really mean too thin / too thick.

You don’t want them so fat they overlay other stuff. Time for bifocals old man

I'm not even seeing traffic. My car is new, 2 months, so it should have premium connectivity, but I never see any indication of traffic

A Garmin GPS I had 8 years ago or so had a perfect thick line (orange/red) next to the road. Much easier to see if you glance that way.

LOL, I have them! Progressives, so life changing. Anyway, I agree you don't want to lose detail but there's a way of doing it I think...

I’d like to see a nice heavy color (red, yellow, green, black) on the roads/freeways/highways. My Chevy Volt has it, and I find it easier to view than my prior Ford Explorer and Honda Pilot. The VW Touareg also had a good traffic indicator.

I find them to be more of a random pretty line generator than any real indication of traffic/congestion

There is this, of course. They seem generally to be so 20 minutes ago. I fire up Waze if I want current info.
