google maps gives warning to avoid traffic on road safety know how it happens

How Google Maps Locate Traffic: In the last few years, the popularity of Google Maps has increased a lot. It is used by bikers, drivers, pedestrians and public transport passengers to get directions while going from one place to another. Google Maps not only shows the route, but also tells how much traffic is ahead. In case of traffic, the red road starts appearing on Google Map.

Have you ever wondered how Google Maps knows that there is traffic ahead? This is because sometimes the traffic on the road keeps fluctuating. Actually, whenever there is a jam on a road, the traffic is moving slow there. To give this information, Google Maps tracks the location of the phone of the user present in the vehicles running on the road and then analyzes it. It shows the traffic situation there according to this analysis. It shows data based on the speed of the vehicle and the number of smartphones.

This is how it came to know

Let us tell you that in the year 2023, a person went around an empty road in Berlin with 99 phones in a basket. But according to the mobile data, there were 99 people there, so Google was showing traffic on that road, while it was not so. This shows that if the mobile location is on, then it is found out how much traffic is there at a place.

Traffic history is also known
