@Tomas: Just in case you're going to considering it, here is my idea how it should work (very similar to @hvdwolf 's suggestion): When traffic obstacle (blocked road/traffic jam) is detected, a notification box should appear in navigation …

How does bypassing of traffic jams work in MapFactor?
@tomas : To finalize this, I just would like to give just 1 example why I cannot use an app for navigation that does not ask before it switches to an alternative route (and I guess I'm not the only driver with this): I live in the region Brusse…

Thanks for your reply. What a pity. But I don't want to be sent right into the center of a big town without preceding approval when there is some traffic jam on the highway around it.
