I should have paid attention to earlier reviews. I activated the subscription, set it to show any type of event and in 3 weeks driving routes around Chicago metro it has sat there. The icon says it is apparently active and yet it has not shown a single warning. It has set routes down freeways the same radio station says are stationary and NOTHING. Totally useless.Took it to LA, with the Traffic Kit as it does at least provide a good charging stand!!. Guess what it was picking up alerts and acting on them within 2 minutes although the traffic status display was identical to what I see in Chicago where it has never received anything.
