real-time traffic data

Real-time traffic data refers to information about current road conditions, including vehicle speeds, congestion levels, and accidents, gathered and updated continuously. This data is collected through various sources, such as GPS devices, traffic cameras, and sensors on roads. It allows drivers to assess their travel routes more effectively, enabling them to make informed decisions about when and where to drive. Apps and navigation systems use this information to suggest the quickest or least congested routes, enhancing travel efficiency and safety. It plays a crucial role in urban planning and managing traffic flows in cities.
