I'd agree for unpredictable congestion but argue that local knowledge
would probably win over any GPS congestion displays. I've been taken
on routes by the GPS I wouldn't typically take because I know all the
little side options etc.

My tomtom knows the traffic congestion around here better than I do.

But not as well as google.maps does.

Google can't track phones in the UK, its illegal.

It isnt tracking phones.

AFAYK.

I know how they do it. They don't track phones.

You *can* track phones (they do).

They don't for traffic measurement.

You can't track a GPS *receiver*.

You can't track a phone in airplane mode either.
