    traffic updates dont work in this little backwater of ours.
    you're lucky to get half decent maps.

    Is that a rhetoric question or a real question?
    Some would say it's because of Fianna Fail, others would blame the DTO, others again the evolution of our roads system, which has led to us having more roads per head of capita than anywhere else in Europe.

    I say it's because our country is too small, and the market for such a product just doesn't exist.

    it was a rhetorical questio(vague As usual!) but agreed!

    just done some research,most traffic update system sare run my third party companies,not government etc!

    aa roadwatch is pretty up to date so if tomtom or similar worked in conjunction with them something might happen....but thats not going to happen!
