TerminatorX5 is on a distinguished road
In DC/NoVA area the cops will nail you for using the cell phone - about six years ago I was in downtown DC, looking for one of the gov-t buildings for a meeting that we were having, and I was on the phone with a guy who guided me through.. At one of the traffic lights, as I was getting ready to move, I saw a dozen cop cruisers throwing their cherry-tops on, I thought there was an ambulance or something... yeah, right... they were all over me... for the cell phone thing... lol...

Otherwise, I use old, plain google maps with traffic overlays...

This particular device is supposedly capable of telling the onboard Nav about the traffic jams and make an attempt to reroute...

but the cost of testing is too much... I am hoping some of those fellas in Lithuania will come up with something... lol...
