I was under the impression that the free BMW assist in the US only includes the basic safety plan. The convenience plan, that includes traffic assist is an option for an additional annual fee. This info was also given to me by a BMW-NA rep.

I was using the driving directions on my nav yesterday and I was advised of a traffic back up and re-route option, which worked great by the way.

I do not subscribe to the convenience plan but yet I received real time traffic information.

Does anybody know if real time traffic is standard on the free BMW assist?
