- Ease of use
Still have Route Planner function
Bad Points
Now have to pay for traffic information from RAC!!!
General Comments
The RAC traffic news is still not up and running. Instead you are directed to live traffic updates from your mobile or land line which cost 60p per minute. It had been getting harder and harder to navigate to the traffic information and I find it very annoying that it was quietly sidelined over time and removed so we could all pay for the information instead!
The route planner function still exists and is still a useful tool but how long before that disappears too?
