If you checked with AOL Search before you left your house or work, you would never be sitting in your car, stuck in traffic again. Just search for 'traffic' in the nearest search box (whether it be on your toolbar or at the top of this page) and you will instantly see a map of your area with a traffic report.

The MapQuest traffic One Click provides you with an up-to-the-minute, interactive traffic map. Icons tell you about any accidents or construction, and color coding details the speed of the traffic flow. You can also drag the map to gauge the traffic farther along your route.

For more travel information, click on the traffic link at the top of the map. You will be taken to MapQuest, where you can also find directions, local gas prices and more! Let us know what you think about our traffic One Click.
