WHAT DOES THE APP DO?

Wrong way alert

 

Automatic alerts from Traffication-active ŠKODAs

 

Adverse weather alert

 

Manual Traffication alerts from ŠKODA drivers

 

WRONG WAY ALERT

If you approach a slip road on to a motorway in the wrong direction, Traffication will alert you and ask you to stop. Other ŠKODAs with the Traffication app in the vicinity are informed of the risk. Wrong Way Alert also works the other way around – if any other car, even if it is not a ŠKODA, drives into oncoming traffic, the app will alert you to the danger with a notification.

AUTOMATIC ALERTS FROM TRAFFICATION-ACTIVE ŠKODAS

ŠKODA cars fitted with Traffication automatically alert each other (i.e. without the need for any action on the part of the driver) to potential hazards in their surroundings. For example, if a car has activated its hazard lights (because it has broken down) or fog lights (because of poor visibility), other drivers in the vicinity will receive a notification on their infotainment display.

ADVERSE WEATHER ALERT

Traffication can warn you in advance of dangerous weather on your route that could make driving conditions more difficult. For example, Traffication can inform you about slippery roads, a thunderstorm, heavy snow, or torrential rain.

MANUAL TRAFFICATION ALERTS FROM ŠKODA DRIVERS

Drivers who have installed Traffication in their cars can inform other drivers of road hazards. They enter these warnings into the app manually, then send them out to other drivers. For example, the app can be used to warn of roadworks, a tailback, bad weather, or animals. Become part of the ŠKODA community and help other ŠKODA drivers to travel more safely.
