Acura Real Time Traffic Coverage Expands

The real time traffic service in the 2005 Acura RL luxury performance sedan will expand to cover the Tampa and Orlando metro markets, the division announced today. Starting June 15, RL owners will receive construction, accident and weather-related incident information for the Tampa and Orlando metro areas in real time. The Tampa market will also include traffic flow (speed) information.
