Traffic flow and traffic jams at a glance

Anyone who has ever been stuck in a traffic jam knows how valuable every minute is. The ADAC map tool shows in real time what the traffic flow on the roads looks like and provides information about short-term disruptions. This makes it ideal for route planning, as the forecasts offer a reliable assessment of upcoming journeys. The data refers not only to Germany, but also to most neighboring holiday countries, which is particularly important for travelers during the holiday season. Construction sites and dangerous situations, such as slippery snow or storm warnings, are also displayed so that drivers are well prepared when they hit the road.

The Staumelder map shows what's going on on the motorways and side roads. The map is constantly updated and can be accessed via smartphones and tablets. This means users can always keep track of things. Statistically speaking, most traffic jams are often caused by tailgating or abrupt braking, also known as the accordion effect. If you find yourself in a situation like this, it is important to stay calm and not forget the emergency lane: if there are two lanes, split left and right, or if there are three or more left, go left and the others straight ahead. This means emergency services can pass quickly and without obstacles.
