real-time traffic
Instant road conditions
Real-time traffic refers to current road conditions as they're happening, including congestion, accidents, and delays.
Navigation apps and traffic services pull data from sensors, GPS signals, and user reports to show drivers what's actually occurring on roads right now: The app rerouted me around real-time traffic on the highway.
The term distinguishes live conditions from historical patterns or predictions.
