Yahoo Search - Display Traffic Reports

SUMMARY: View traffic maps of many major US metropolitan areas.

Need to know if construction delays, accidents, or general traffic jams will delay your getting to or leaving from the office? Need to run a few errands but don't want to waste time in bumper-to-bumper traffic? Yahoo! Search can display traffic reports for selected cities so you can plan alternate routes.

To search for traffic reports, just type in a query in the format: "traffic CITY". If Yahoo! Search has traffic information for your city, the first result will be a link to a map complete with incident reports. Click on icons to display detailed information for each incident.
