Why waste your time stuck in traffic?
Save drive time, gas, and your sanity by adding traffic services to your compatible Garmin with help of the portable GTM 12.
TMC Receiver that needs no installation.
Steering clear of traffic tie-ups just got easier
When it comes to avoiding traffic jams and bottlenecks, good decisions start with good information. And that's where Garmin's GTM 12 traffic receiver can make a quantum difference in any driver's quality of life.
The GTM 12 is a small FM-band traffic receiver that needs no installation and simply connects to your compatible Garmin GPS receiver to provide real-time Traffic Message Channel (TMC) data which is then used to depict and identify problem areas on their moving-map displays. Available in a fast-growing number of cities throughout the UK and Europe, this TMC data gives prompt, accurate notification of accidents, road construction, police, or emergency action, etc.-so drivers can visually monitor traffic flow and, if necessary, select an alternate route.
The TMC traffic alerting system works on an FM sideband signal which utilizes RDS (Radio Data Service) technology. Digitized and coded real-time traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data channel-which means that drivers can still listen to music or news programming on their car radios, without interference from the incoming FM traffic data transmissions. In most areas, depending on the service provider, TMC traffic broadcasts are continuous-there's no waiting for scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. With the GTM 12, you see traffic developments in real-time, as they happen, so you can make the right decision sooner. The system will alert you when a traffic problem is on your route and propose an alternate route to avoid the incident.
The Garmin GTM 12. If getting stuck in traffic is not your idea of fun, this is the technology for you.
Traffic services are available only in select cities where RDS-TMC coverage exists.
Provides real-time traffic information to compatible Garmin GPS car navigators
Alerts users to local traffic tie-ups, displaying graphical map reference on compatible Garmin products
Weighs just 2.6 ounces
Subscription in Great Britain: The GTM 12 traffic receiver comes preloaded with a lifetime subscription to TrafficMaster, the cost of which is included in the price of the unit.
