XM NavTraffic Function Limitations

Perhaps I am the only one silly enough to expect the XM Traffic functions to actually work while driving, so , for example I can see the details as to which side of the road an icon showing trouble is located (my direction or not). Bottom line is some engineer at Pioneer made a mistake and turned OFF just about every single useful feature of the NavTraffic while driving. Even if you try to fake out the parking brake indicator, the GPS will kick in and complain and still won't work.

I am a bit surprised no one has written anything similar to my post, so perhaps its my unit due to being before a possible update or other fix?

Any feedback greatly appreciated.

I believe that the bypass will enable all features while driving.

yes the bypass will give you full function while the car is in motion.
