Traffic overlay without a destination has existed for years…
On mobile apps? I just looked at a couple samplings of highways and there’s nothing. Is this on the web site specifically?
It does. Tap the Overlay button (above the compass) and enable Traffic.
I wish it also showed the speed limit of the road you’re on even if you’re not actively navigating.
TBH I’d rather not see this at all because, in my experience, it’s either inaccurate or missing for most roads.
Ah sometimes it’s just knowing an option is there. Thank you kind internet stranger
