About the app:

• By default, the app will show current traffic.
• Higher scores means more severe traffic.
• The score for each region/route is relative to itself.
• Regions are color-coded in different shades of red based on traffic severity.
• You can enter a date and time to check predicted future traffic.
• Warning: It will NOT work for past dates and times.
• The buttons under "Your Commute" are not functional at this point.
