Does anyone else use the online TomTom route planner? I find it very handy, but it is not taking into account the delays on the roads. Try "Kendal, UK" to "Worcester", and it is telling me there is no delay, but right now the TT740 tells me there is 63 mins delay (which is less than the 99+ earlier!). It hasn't done this in a while. |

What is odd is that the delays are showing on the route planner map but not the calculation. _________________ Drivelux |

Shows delays for me on local journeys, in my case 30 minutes, but not on the OP's kendal to worcester. _________________ GO 620, Tomtom Android EU,

I've tried it to see what the journey time on the M25 is at different time of day and the time doesn't vary, so other than "live" delays I think the "when are you travelling" option is rather pointless _________________ TomTom ONE Series 30 (v8) & TMC traffic

I have seen on occasions when teh route planner may not be working but teh Tomtom is.
I guess taht teh server/software behind it is working right at that time. Normally it matches my tomtom fine. |
