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.
