Hi All,
Can anyone explain the route colors?

I'm assuming the inner most colour is what bmw think the traffic flow is, and the outer colour is the actual traffic flow.
As you can see from my image, I have a two way flow.

Don't know about green but red or yellow to the side indicates some slow or stationary traffic using RTTI (real time traffic info). When I picked my car up In hit loads of traffic on the way back and it successfully predicted it all with pretty accurate lengths. The side it's on indicates the direction of the block.

Must use some kind of witchcraft!

Usually the out colour is the accurate one (Orange on the left, green on the right) but I want to know what the inner colour son each lane represent
* Green is normal flow

Why on earth does the BMW use white as the route to follow! I wish that could be changed.

Can anyone confirm why there is two colours for each side of the road??

Different colours on different sides of the road are to indicate traffic conditions for each direction of flow.

Green = normal traffic flow (fast)
Orange = slow traffic
Red = traffic stops

HI All,
I understand what the colours mean. My questions is why is there 4 colours for one road as per my picture.
On the right hand side of the road it has red and green colour, and the left is orange and another colour (below my direction of travel). I just cant figure out why there is two colours for each side of the road

2 roads that run parallel?

The deep red colour is the actual road itself. It's the deep red colour because of the type of highway/main route it is. And then the white in the direction you're going is obviously your route to follow. (If you killed the nav route that bit would also be the deep red). The reason there's 2 deep red bits (albeit it's hidden under your route) is that the carriageways are physically split in either directions - bridge over the river perhaps?).

Then the orange and green are the two traffic colours.

So the map is showing orange (slow traffic) then your route in white (over the deep red of the road (South Pine Rd), then the deep red of the same road (the other carriageway of South Pine Rd) and then the green (good traffic) for the road in that direction.

Make sense?


(EDIT-looked at google maps and it shows that South Pine Rd is indeed 2 separate carriageways divided by grass reservation/median over the brook (or dry brook as google maps shows)).
